How in the world are we mortgaging the house by inviting him to one home game as a guest? Those rich, white, Country Club people from Newport Beach don't read this Board or follow LBSU Basketball anyway. Their daughters also listen to hip hop music. As do the majority of LBSU students. Most kids today listen to a mix of Pop, Hip Hop, Rock, and County. Taylor Swift is extremely popular among girls.
Anyway, back to the subject. I just thought inviting Snoop would get us a little more community support and perhaps a financial windfall. And it would thrill the Monson Maniacs and students to actually see Snoop at a LBSU game.
And Beachman, no disrespect meant to Brian G or any of the other fine Coaches at LBSU. And I am a big Dirtbag fan. But since we don't have Football the ONLY sport at LBSU that really matters is Mens Basketball. That is the only sport we will ever really make any money on. What ever is good for Mens Basketball is good for the Athletic Dept as a whole.

: Snoop is the # 1 negative recruiting tactic

:
: Welcome to the LBC...
:
: It's true with OC and south bay recruits

:
: It's true with out of state recruits (FACT)

: And it's true with int'l recruits (FACT)
:
: Have that from multiple recruits ....
:
: The last thing we need is any relationship

:
: It's killing up and just piles onto the

: It you want him, go to Oakland.

: Dissagree. "Ask and you shall

: Remembering the Steve Martin fiasco. I would

: Remember he has no ties to the University.
:
: What I would do is have Monson extend a

: as a guest of Mens Basketball. Let him sit
: on the bence with the Players. Tell him he
: will be introduced to the crowd as a honored
: guest of LBSU Basketball.
:
: But do not ask him to perform or for a
: contribution. Let him come up with that
: idea.
