I have to disagree on the low vulture count, Monroe. I think 157 during the middle of the work day is pretty good. Please keep in mind a lot of employers have Internet filters that prohibit employees from looking at sites like this during the work day.
Besides, seriously how many alumni even know this site exists? I never knew such a thing existed (as I seriously thought I was one of only a few alumni way into Ohio athletics) until I met two fellow alums on the plane from Cleveland to Mobile for the GMAC Bowl. I don't know about when you were there Monroe but I can tell you from '81 to '85 Ohio was NOT in any way, shape or form a sports-minded college (heck, Danny Nee used to go to the bars to try and drum up student support). And from what I see now (daughter's a senior there), while athletics is certainly more prominent part of campus life now than it has been for a long time, it's still not a sports-minded college and neither are most of the students there. I've long come to realize that on a day-to-day basis only a very small fraction of all Ohio alumni even follow Ohio sports in some form or fashion. And that's OK-was part of the charm about Ohio to me.
So I think those of us that even know of this messageboard (or even care) are in reality few and far between.
I understand, Mark. But no matter the reason, the vulture count is low. Compare 157 vultures to what it would be at major colleges--work filters or not--should rumors like this JC business be flying. Mobile devices are huge these days--what all the facebooks and twitters are chasing.. Employers pretty much don't stop mobile.
We need to work to match our aspirations (high) with our reality (not so high, unfortunately).
Also, my understanding is that some of the vulture count comes from web bots.
