I agree with most of this here and I don't think anyone is calling for a 12 man rotation...but imma pull two lines from above that are kinda contradictory to each other:
"Either these young guys are good enough to crack the 8/9 man rotation or they are not." and " if Ross offered him, he must be good."
this is basically Ross's roster at this point, and yes, while we're winning games, I haven't seen any world-beaters out there. so if these kids are being given opportunity to win playing time and aren't at least pushing the upperclassmen for minutes, I have questions about our freshmen recruiting...I don't know if they "must be good"
I don't see any other option but to root for him...
If you fire him now and reset the program again (twice in less then 2 years) then you throw away next season. All the recruiting, and portal momentum, and most of the team will disappear with the coach being fired.
1. Anyone. There is a tryout.
2. No. It is provided by the school. The summer uniform/clothes under the uniform are paid for by the students.
3. Both. Most play on their own instrument. Marching instruments such as the sousaphones, marching baritones, mellophones and drumline are provided by the school.
4. Both. To my understanding.
5. 1 credit 😡
6. Most GB members make up the pep groups but that’s not always the case.
*This might be outdated info. Sorry if anyone has other intel.
Not being capable and not being given a legitimate opportunity are two different things. Moore never got a legitimate chance in my opinion. I don't think Taylor would have been given a legitimate chance either just like I don't believe Vice, Cotton, and Mason are being given legitimate opportunities to showcase themselves. We had a 20 point lead the entire second have against Evansville. They couldn't get in for 5-10 minutes with the members of the main rotation to see how they perform? Would be nice to know what we have if a main player goes down...
Before adding my thoughts, I have some questions about the band that maybe current or former band members or someone in the know can answer.
1. Who gets to be in the band? Is it an open try out or only available to students in the school of music? Is there a try out at all?
2. Do band members have to pay for (or rent) their uniforms or are they provided by the school?
3. Do they play their own personal instruments or are these provided by the school?
4. Where does any funding required for the band come from (Athletic Department, School of Music, somewhere else)?
5. Do band members receive any credits (elective or otherwise) for being in the band of it is purely voluntary?
6. What (if any) is the relationship between the Green Brigade and the pep band that plays at basketball games?
