This is a post to lay down some groundwork for something coming up on Bull Run tomorrow, keep an eye out
The guys sat around the water cooler the other day talking about how to rate the “hype” that UB athletics has generated over the years.
What we came up with is a combination of a strict “on the field/court” results equation and some other variables for specific milestones.
We call it the “Buffalo Athletics Hype Index”, and it will be used in some other posts in the coming weeks to describe the progress, and challenges, that the department faces if it really does want to become one of the consistently good G5 / mid major athletic departments that command an mount of respect in college athletics.
