Upon doing the maths, 65% increase for me. Tickets + parking last year I paid $520. Renewed this year for $860. A lot of that increase was parking, in fairness…$80 > $175 so the ticket price wasn’t as big of an increase as I thought.

Not complaining, but a bit of sticker shock this year. Still well worth it.

Appreciate you sharing specifics but I am still confused.  At $520 for both tickets & parking last year you paid $55/game ticket and $10/game parking.  At $860 for both tickets and parking next year, with $175 of the $860 being parking ($25/game) that leaves $685 for 7 games and that converts to $97.86/game.  I am not trying to be argumentative but that just doesn't "foot" as my accountant wife would say.  LOL

Which part? The ticket number is my total for 2 if that’s the issue. So per seat last year was $220/$27.50 a game, this year is $383/$49 a game. 

If my increase is the issue, I just suck at mathin. Also I said tier 3 earlier, I’m actually in tier 4.

Busiest person on campus is the guy in charge of getting more seats in the stadium

Mazel Tov to the Roarke family. So, 5 weeks pregnant as of January 6? I thought I enjoyed the Purdue beatdown, but Kurtis appears to have enjoyed it more.

The Daily Hoosier -

In a release, IU football says they have welcomed 31 newcomers to campus to start the spring semester, which includes 17 transfers and 14 freshmen who will join the program for spring ball.

It is incredible the transformation in perception and expectation for IU football that has happened in just one season. The right support and staff can lead to remarkable results. I believe the best is yet to come.

I like it that that many of the freshmen will be there for spring practice. That's like 2/3 of the incoming FR class?

Seems strange.  Didn't he just get a nice raise?

I was hoping our new large staff budget would prevent this.  He is making about $1.9M here.  But we'll see what happens.

wonder if greedy gus is just trying to get 2 raises in a month

Yea, his raise puts him in the top-10 in the country.  We just made the playoff and he's interviewing?  Come on.

Unless he likes location better, it would probably have to be a significant raise to cover difference in cost of living.
