Lol, college football coaches are REALLY going to have to earn that money. Gonna have to recruit their own roster non-stop plus new players.
Coach: I was very disappointed in your effort during practice this week, and I will NOT tolerate you skipping classes.
Player: My next coach will

This is interesting data. Thank you for tracking.
We’ve got to get this program to a point where we are no longer making excuses for attendance over the holiday break. I was at every game with my crew of 4-5 people.Tech played on Saturday too and they played in front of a sold out arena. And yeah I am comparing us to Tech because we have the potential to get our program to that level.
Here is the key difference: Tech fans go to games to see Tech, so things like weather, opponent, holidays, what they had for breakfast, etc. don’t keep them away. Our “fanbase” will wait for the perfect circumstances (AND other people showing up first so it’s cool to be there) before they’ll show up in real numbers.

Can we please stop now with the offensive signings and address the defense's front seven?
You mean like the mystery “P5 defensive lineman” we heard about 3 days ago…and never again??

You can only add one of the choices…and no adding options, just choose from what’s listed.

I knew he got banged up, but figured he’d come back by now.

The scoreboards at each end of the court are malfunctioning.
Quality equipment from the mid-late 1900's.
Those aren’t more than 10 years old

Crowd might be worse than last week. More maniacs at least.
We’re more of a critique from afar kind of fanbase

Mooney was pretty sought after coming out of high school, and likely sat because he was behind a pretty solid guy his one year at Liberty.

Love his effort. Results are still up in the air. We are not dominating in AAC recruiting to the level I expected or hoped at this point.
Dominating?
What was it about the several years that preceded our entry into the American, or the step up in competition, that made you think we would show up and dominate in recruiting??

This game has been absolutely stolen by the refs. UTSA setup a beautiful screen to get a wide open dunk with 6 seconds left but the refs called an offensive foul for an illegal screen. It's been non-stop fouls on UTSA. So thankful we don't play Memphis on the road.
The real story was UTSA’s inability to play smart ball and close this game out. They are who they are for a reason.

If this program’s records the past 5 seasons weren’t…
31-7, 25-7, 18-10, 20-11, 21-12 with conference titles, an NIT title, and an NCAA tournament win sprinkled in…then I would be on YOUR side
There is ZERO excuse for attendance less than 5k a game

Just a question, is it really “breaking news” when it’s nothing more than a tease with no pay off??

Any media love we get will have to start with ESPN. Perhaps the local media will catch on later, but you know they're all in love with the Big12. And smut, for some reason.

I mean, it’s not like any posts on this forum are saving the rain forest or stopping human trafficking.
But I watched a lot of college basketball this weekend and other schools have full stands and aren’t making the excuse that school isn’t in session.
Most of these kids live in DFW anyway. And plenty of them are still in Denton.I drove over an hour to be there. I give my money and time to support this program and I believe the student support should be a lot better than it was yesterday.
First, you are not wrong about the students…the VAST majority of our student body lives within 45 minutes of campus.
But I would ask you to consider a few things.
1) Our students are not “normal”. I have long felt that being a school where the main majors are music, elementary ed, and other VERY liberal arts isn’t a recipe for having a bunch of sports fans. Hell, we even have a recruiting commercial for the University where the theme is “we’re not normal.”
2) With the success this team has had, the portions of the pit that aren’t student sections are even more conspicuously empty. Where were the promotions to celebrate the first ever AAC game at the pit? Why haven’t I heard of a “pack the pit” night on January 25th yet…SMU is coming to our house and there should be NO trouble selling why we need a hostile atmosphere.
Somehow, some way, we need to make the pit more than a great place to quietly enjoy your nachos.

Obviously Edwards’ 37 points was the main story, but a couple other tidbits of note.
- Aaron Scott had a double-double, the only one in the game
- Robert Allen led the team in assists
- Tulane’s Kevin Cross averages 16.8 a game…and had 9 today

I expect to see this tweeted by Vito by the end of the night 😁

Let's keep this rolling. Super Pit is one of the toughest places for a road team to get a W.
And we’re not bad on the road either

I’ve always believed culture trumps everything. Instill (and reinforce) a culture of accountability, no excuses, and EXPECTED success and you will see the results you want.
