G GARBAGE Ask, and you shall receive. Well, yesterday we asked for the administrations of our beloved university and that school in Morgantown to forget about profits, get down to business and finalize the details of the long-awaited Marshall/WVU game. " Well, the magic genie that lives in Old Main finally decided to grant one of our wishes. We've got two left .... This is the first time we can remember ever asking for anything from the administration and getting it the same day. Okay, maybe we had nothing to do with it, but sQmeone has to take the credit. The preliminary details of THE GAME were finally nailed down yesterday - it looks like the Herd's first iD game· of the. 1997 season will be at Mountaineer Field. We are already marking our calendars. Marshall is INDUSTRY getting 7,300 tickets, but you'll have a better chance of going to the Super Bowl than getting one of those. Right now the game is a one-shot deal. The two schools can't come to an agreement about how often the game should be in Huntington, how to split the profits, blah blah blah. WVU is also giving Marshall $150,000 to make up for our having to drive to Mo'town, and the teams will share any money that comes in from sponsorships, promotions and licensing agreements made for the game. We couldn't really care less about all of that. Sure money is nice, and this university needs it, but this is a dream come true. The first game in Marshall's I-A comeback is against WVU.
