Great day for Football! Not happy so many students bailed and wound up missing us having a chance to win until halfway through the 4th Q. As for the regular fans the same diehards are there that I've seen for years. These fans care and Coach Diaco is spot on to recognize them. Missing 10,000 fans we make a lot of noise and the atmosphere was very good. Seeing the AD come through with a big positive response to the 3rd down complaints was a good sign. We are going in the right direction except for trying to make so many vehicles exit out the east gate. That is just a poorly thought out traffic pattern. My solution would be all grey lots out east gate, all blue lot out Pratt main entrance to Roberts Street and I-84. Trying to merge blue and grey is slowing things way down.
Looked over at the student section in fourth qtr when we were down by three. Couldn't believe about a third of them had left. They need to step up.
The new firm managing the rent leaves a lot to be desired in addition to needing to rethink the traffic patterns. No one assisting exiting fans crossing the roadway back to the first blue lot. Unfortunately Ct. Drivers don't like to stop for pedestrians in the crosswalk. Haven't been anyone directing traffic there for any games there this year. Several uf us did harass an employee just sitting there on his four wheeler but he did nothing. Oh well. At least we had 5 cops at the intersection.
While I'm at it. What ever happened to the ushers in the stadium? They are few and far between.
At least the team and the fans were much improved this week.
