That Rosemont game should pack the Gola 4 days before Christmas. Might be players families there and support staff only. I am okay with the schedule overall but Rosemont I don't get. Also, Drexel played at Gola last year and playing this year at Gola which strange. |

Rosemont has a small roster. Their tallest player is 6-6. Rokas will be like Wilt out there

I think the Drexel game may be based on seeding the Big 5 tournament. Looks like our pod is Temple number 1, us 2 and Drexel 3rd. I'm okay with Rosemont game. Cuts back on travel expenses and hopefully gives everyone a chance to get some minutes.

Our home games are against opponents with an average NET of 274, plus a D3 squad. This isn't going to sell tickets. Drexel is probably the most exciting of these OOC home games from their NET last season (191) and the Big 5 implications.

Put Nova on the schedule in place of Rosemont, and I'm ok with the schedule, for like the first time since 2014. We couldn't call G and get Rowan?

I'd rather see a Delaware or other CAA team in there. i wish the ooc schedule had a couple better opponents but the rosemont game is the only real problem i have with it. that game should be an exhibition prior to the start of the season. there are dozens of better options in the CAA, PL, MAAC, AE, or NEC as well as many good d2 teams all able to get here on a short bus trip. no way a d3 team should be part of the regular schedule. |

I love this non-conference schedule for us. Two ACC teams (Duke and Miami, FL.) and two HBCU schools (Coppin St. and Howard). But, the Rosemont game should be played on senior day to give the walk-on a chance to play. The Big 5 tournament is a great thing for all the city schools. We should have a winning non-conference before the A10 season starts. Let go baby.

no way a d3 team should be part of the regular schedule. 100% agree! If we want to be a D1 school, we need to act like a D1 school and play D1 opponents. Late December is not the time to be scheduling D3 schools. |

Would love the data on how much money game tickets brings in. Same. My initial guess was slight less than $1M. Then I looked at average attendance last year, ticket prices, etc, and came closer to $500K, even factoring in a slight bump for food and merch sales. From that you're paying refs, an announcer, security, cleaning people, food workers, etc. (doesn't factor coach's salaries). Maybe that takes away another $50K. You're still pulling in probably $450K. I know 4 people not renewing their season tickets this year, and they sit in chairbacks, buying 2 tickets each. So that's $2.6K lost off the bat, plus an additional $2K for the seat license (1% of revenue if we go with these revenue and cost assumptions) |

based on all tix being sold at this year's season ticket prices:
a sellout would generate just under $45k. that takes into account that no tix in the student section (e3) are sold. the full home schedule (17 games) would generate $765k.
based on last season's average attendance (1,481), tix sales per game would be approx $19.6k and $333k for the season.
if la salle let everyone in for free, they would lose over $300k in revenue? who's supposed to absorb that cost?

I'd be surprised if tickets to Gola games netted 300k in revenue.

That Rosemont game should pack the Gola It shouldn't be on the schedule. It should be a pre-season scrimmage of you want to play them. I remember a couple years back I said “if we lose to Sacred Heat, I will change my name and move to Marcus Hook.” I will restrain myself. |
