"This was a money game" I guess most who post here are too young to remember when Canisius posted winning records against top ranked D1 teams...now it is a little like prostitution, lousy work and bad for your reputation but the money is good.

There's this narrative that Canisius used to beat Power 4 teams. Canisius is 3-25 against the Big Ten, 14-26 against the Big 12, 41-96 against the ACC, 52-95 against the Big East, and 109-195 against the A-10 all-time.

That doesn't mean that Canisius should forget its past. It doesn't mean that the Griffs should just give up, but the game has changed and Canisius needs to evolve with it. Spending time thinking about NIL, fundraising, tickets, sponsorships, and marketing are all better than dwelling on games at the Aud.

I rather liked it more when we beat Syracuse, Providence, (amongst others) in the same season. Now we just schedule money games against such teams, if they will have us.

So, tell us how you really feel?

The hard part about this era is $ is the most important thing and then ensuring you invest it in the right players is the second most important.

Go Griffs!
