However, you will never gain an edge trying to duplicate what the big players already do. I would like to see more creative ideas generated by UD and the A10. Boise State came into football prominence by thinking very creatively and using the blue field to generate interest. It did not matter if you liked the field. It made football fans notice and gave them a little more to help recruiting. It helped raise the stature of the program. UD is a great execution school. They run a profitable basketball program and entertain the fans at UD Arena. However, the school is very conservative in its thinking and unwilling to be highly creative when it comes to going to the next level. The program only does low risk tasks. I learned a long time ago that creativity and nimbleness are the only advantages that you have against large well funded institutions. UD needs some creativity if it ever wants to get to the next level.

Suggestions?
