How much of a factor is Dabo in night games


Jul 14, 2012, 5:48 PM

I know everybody likes to argue the merits of night/3:30/12:00 kickoff times but besides that, how much of a factor is Dabo's preference for not having night games effect us actually having them. A friend and I were just discussing it. I would think the TV powers that be would have a lot more influence over that than the HC but I'm looking for opinions.

I could well be wrong but I've always heard that TDP and Barker didn't like night games because of the traffic and the distances some fans have to travel. Again, I could be wrong !!

Fans have to travel earlier for noon games.

At least they have all day to get there for a night game.

I guess I missed this but when did Dabo say he didnt like night games...I like night games but IMO the 3:30 games are the best

I agree. For those of us that travel, it gives you a few extra hours to get there/tailgate. The game is over around 7-7:30 and you are able to get home at a somewhat reasonable hour.

No more or less a factor than the opposing head coach.You got to play the game regardless of what the time is!

Why don't you stop quacking? I'm just kidding man, someone had to say it.

I don't remember Dabo ever commenting on a preference

between day and night games.

Regardless, if the game is televised, I'd say it has zero impact. I believe we're at the mercy of the networks...comes with the big paycheck.

If the game isn't televised, I'm sure a coach's opinion matters, but then that's games like Furman.
