Surprise! Surprise!
How many of these do we have now? or did we lose somebody. Sure couldn't tell they even existed last year. Not slamming the person but seriously we were invisible in this state. I had one of the statewide broadcasters tell me he covered us because he felt sorry that we had such a great team and was getting nothing.

What the heck is a "street team"? Another way of saying we're not spending any money on advertising most likely.
Seriously, I talk with basketball players and football players and they all say fans in the stands make a huge difference in their confidence of play. They deserve better than what this administration (and fans) is giving them. Yeah, we're not that other school but dang..we're good. Might be time to volunteer some time in promotions and gameday atmosphere for this cheap school. Seriously.
