Gotta Love Hartzell's Quote!

[DrewDog]

In today's Register (10/9) - "There are a lot of people who find it hard to believe we're going to sell this out, but when you get the best football team in the state, you should sell out," Northern Iowa athletic director Rick Hartzell said Monday to laughter and cheers from fans.

"I had never said that until that moment. It was fun."

Would've loved to see the smile on his face when he said it.

I wish the article would have mentioned that they are opening the Mcleod Center and that it is on TV. But I'll take free publicity any time we can!

I'm kind of sad to see that they didn't even mention the volleyball match in the homecoming release/article on the official UNI athletics site. I know it is a release about "football homecoming", but they still could have included it on the schedule like they did with the Messersmith Track dedication.

Hopefully lots of people will stick around after the football game to take in some Panther volleyball at 7:30. Though I suppose that does make for a long day, especially for those who started tailgating at 7 a.m. heh.

Sounds like they are doing a pep rally and fireworks after the volleyball match on Friday night too. Should be a great weekend! I love that Hartzel said last night as far as he was concerned you could start tailgating at 7am when they secure the lots. Hope he's told public safety this so there aren't any hassles with early tailgating...

So excited that Hartzell expects the following Saturday's game against defending Gateway champ Youngstown State to be an equally hot ticket.

Excited to see good early sales for the YSU game. Unfortunately, the game isn't next Saturday, but is two weeks after the SIU game. We travel to WIU next week.
