I contacted Greg Byrne about buying some ad space in the game day program. Big G (we're tight like that) thanked me for my interest in advertising with the university and after forwarding me to the proper department threw out a "Go Dawgs!" at the end of his email. Nice touch, but I digress... Like I said he forwarded me to Taylor Harris who is apparently in charge of such things. I call him up and to my chagrin he told me that I had missed the June 30 deadline but offered to email me a price list so we can advertise in the future. At this point he says "So who do you represent?" and I throw out SixPackSpeak.com. The phone goes silent. I mean you could almost hear crickets on the other end. The tone of the last 30 seconds of the phone convo. completely changed. He reiterated that he would forward me the price list and that he appreciated my interest in advertising with the university.
So my idea was a swing and a miss, but the powers that be know we are coming.
