Create something like the Oakland Raiders "The black hole", we should recreate it for the Mean Green.. and sit right behind the goal line. This would create such a hostile environment for the away team. Maybe adding this to "The Pit"

I had that idea as well, so my friend and I dressed up as WolveGREEN & Mean Green Man. There were some Ninja Turtles...in our seats at first.

Unfortunately, there were no other participants. It was a "blackout" game and there was a guy behind us in a pink shirt. Many students also not wearing green/black let alone a costume.

It's a nice thing to think Apogee would be like this, but not until it starts selling out and fans can actually start wearing school colors as well as stop sitting on their hands.

I saw you! I think if we got enough ppl interest we could change the culture of "apathy stadium". Its gotta start somewhere. It really starts with them winning. but having a group of 20 ppl show up, dressed up and be into it would help too.

The problem with being behind the bench is the CUSA buffer zone rule that prevents students from being behind the bench of the opposing teams. If this got big enough it would draw attention and then it would most likely be shut down or forced to be moved.

The student section is right behind the visitor's bench. Or at least, I as a student have sat at the 50 yard line behind the visitors bench for every game so far. There's two or three groups of frat guys who show up too, someone always gets tossed for harassing the players, and we always manage get a rise out of one of the opposing team's players. It's tons of fun.

EDIT: Also, you could call what OP proposed "The Eagle's Nest" or steal the Jet's (Mean)"Gang Green"

Sorry man but this is one of the things I hate about the NFL (which I don't watch) I cringe when I see people dressed like that. It's just cheesy IMO. Is that supposed to look tough?

Just my opinion but NFL crowds= Beer guzzling, middle aged, idiot guys.

      Thanks Coach. Actually the next guy in line comes to us via TCU and is proven when healthy so the predicament isn't as dire as you think.

      Big 12 considering private equity investment of up to $1 billion for as much as 20% of conference

      From The Athletic, today (pretty much a rehash) : The Big 12 isn’t the only Football Bowl Subdivision conference considering selling its naming rights to a sponsor. At least three Group of 5 conferences have held discussions on the topic as well, including Conference USA, the American and the Mountain West, multiple people involved in the discussions told The Athletic. New AAC commissioner Tim Pernetti told The Athletic that he brought up the idea of conference naming rights during his interview for the conference’s top job earlier this year, and it remains a point of discussion. With a background in sports business and private equity, Pernetti has been very open to finding new revenue streams for college sports. “Nothing should be off the table,” Pernetti said. Pernetti believes brands and companies have a strong affinity for college sports, and there are ways that partnerships can strengthen programs at a time of great change. As Rutgers’ athletic director, he helped sell the naming rights to the Scarlet Knights’ football stadium. He also negotiated the jersey sponsorship for New York City FC during his time as the MLS club’s chief business officer. Pernetti emphasized that it’s not simply about who offers the most money. The brand has to fit. At the Group of 5 level, schools will see less money distributed from the NCAA in order for the organization to cover the back pay damages from the House settlement, and the new massive CFP contract won’t provide much more money for their leagues. So everything is up for discussion, including the possibility of renaming a conference or adding a sponsor to the existing name. “These are the conversations we need to have,” Pernetti said.

      Maybe Stone knew that he wasn’t going to be able to compete with that incoming freshman?
