I'm in houston and I would love to see it packed when I flip on the game! C'mon Mean Green nation. Crowd size at this game will have an effect on recruiting later. It's hard to sell a kid when he sees no one in the stands for a big game.

Can I just facepalm this thread entirely?

Bullshit. If we were TCU or any other """big"""" school we'd have no problem selling out a 30K stadium. Really? Was not like that last year against ULL. Line wrapping through library mall for ticke

*Walks to center of stage* *spotlight shines* *Steps on top of soap box* I, Cerebus, am an idiot. Student attendance was incredible. (But I think it will be down the last two home games

I was at the stadium at 7:45 this morning. Quite windy. They are definitely expecting a good crowd. Barricades were already up at the AC, and the rent-a-guards were already patrolling the entrances. Spirit shop is loaded and ready to go. Lots of green stuff. Did not see anything black, but was limited as I was there before opening.

Please do. I'm not going to be a creeper and just randomly take photos of people.

That being said, how pathetic.

Just tell them it's for GoMeanGreen.com , they will completely understand

ARE YOU A REAL FAN OR NOT!?

If you were really committed they would already be up on imgur.

Again, I don't really see the issue with getting so worked up on attendance. The only thing that will change getting over a hump of 25k consistently will be consistent year after year winning. Pull a few 9+ win seasons in a row and this won't be an issue.

I have seen hundreds of students today, only a handful were wearing green. If the students really are as fired up as some have been saying, they aren't showing it by wearing green on game day.

This is really surprising as last Friday I saw more green on students since the Dickey bowl years.

I bet you also saw students dressed a little differently than they usually do. Maybe some wearing Zombie outfits, guys dressed as girls, etc.

No zombies.

I saw some cross dressing but this is Denton and that normal and we don't need your cisgender bias.

Just had a new project dropped in my lap before lunch today. May or May not be able to make the game tonight. If I'd attended TCU I guess this wouldn't be a problem.

"There are several issues and risks that will cause the project to go one day past its projected end date." or "I'm going to the game. Suck it."

Or do that thing where you pretend to pull off your thumb and scream about a horrible slide rule accident.

Come in the next day and explain that it was just a flesh wound and mumble about the wonders of modern science.

Correct. Or if you were a better MAN.

Also would have accepted better husband or father.

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      Please move if needed, posting here as it's related to NIL and is probably more applicable to football than basketball. Miami basketball head coach is resigning. The following are quotes that should be of concern to any fan but especially some of your blue blood programs. What happens when you can no longer outspend your peers so your legendary coaches leave? Saban was the most name worthy retirement but there's been plenty others and here's another big name leaving. NIL will be reeled in when the big money boosters lose their favorite coaches, no longer see the wins on their records, and see they can no longer just money-whip their way to success. From the Miami Herald: “At this point, after 53 years, I just didn’t feel that I could successfully navigate this whole new world that I was dealing with because my conversations were ridiculous with an agent saying to me, `Well, you can get involved [with a prospective player] if you’re willing to go to $1.1 million, and that would be the norm.” ... “What shocked me beyond belief was after we made the Final Four just 18 months ago, the very first time I met with the players, eight of them decided they were going to put their names in the portal and leave. “I said, `Don’t you like it here?’ They’d say, `I love Miami, it’s great.’ But the opportunity to make money someplace else created a situation that you have to begin to ask yourself, as a coach, what is this all about?’’ He added that he tried “every which way” to make things work, but “last year was a disaster”, and this year was not going well, either. He felt the new players were not buying in as transfers had in years prior." https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/college/acc/university-of-miami/article297597538.html

      Bringing in Poffenberger, signing Jimerson and Mestemaker returning, Cash probably realized he wasn’t going to get any playing time here soon. Best of luck to him.
