Another brilliant idea by our wonderful athletic dept. Way to drive revenue Strollo!!! Attendance will be the same whether we had a promo or not. Improve the product on the court and fans will come. We are competitve but everyone knows we will lose the game the last 5-10 minutes every night as long as Slocum is our coach. Even the halftime festivities are boring. I wish President Anderson and the Trustees would wake up and do some mass changes. Wishfull thinking on my part.

How many games now have we had a decent lead and competed well enough to win only to blow it in the last five minutes? I've counted about 7-8 times. Half of those go the other way, and we have maybe 13-14 wins now! Just saying. Is it the coach, not enough wing players of big men. You tell me! I'm tired of hearing the team is young! Other teams have young players too.
YsuPride:
Our team actually has good athletes but no real big men to speak of. It seems Slocum has them play hot potato offense down the stretch instead of being aggessive. If we look at halftime scores we are 12 wins, 12 losses, and 1 tie. I believe we have blown 7 games with a lead around the 5 minute mark. I don't blame that on talent but coaching and the fact that we cannot hit a free throw to save our lives.
