Drake is way behind in the marketing department. I don't know if it's by omission or commission. Whether it be athletic gear,tailgate tents ,even college blazer buttons -Drake is never among the over 150 colleges or universities usually listed. Heck - a few years ago at a stop over in Des Moines Airport there were only Cyclone and Hawkeye gear for sale in the gift shop. No Drake!! What kind of a message is that for prospective students and parents visiting Drake for the first time?
It is clearly time for Drake to get its marketing act together

Why do we have a company at the top of the website that does not have any Drake gear? Just thought it is a little odd that we would have them on here & they have no Drake apparel.

Because they paid to advertise on the site.

Aren't we all dual Drake/IPFW fans?

Odd? I think the guy who "owns" this site is a Cyclone or Panther fan. I could be wrong but in any event I thank him .. or her.
