Anyone catch Pendergast's act at the game?

Why does nobody mention letting our band play like the big time progams do? We have a top shelf band and they are muted by PC Richards and our announcer telling the other team who is going in as qb.......

Couldn't agree more, someones gotta pay the bills but not at the expense of the "college atmosphere" of the game, they have to come up with other ways of getting the advertising done.

Many programs use their band to play the 3rd down and 4th down music. Sometimes they mic our band sometimes they don't, sometimes our band rings the bell most times they don't. They need to get more consistent with the use of the band etc. I personally don't mind the piped in music for the 3rd nad 4th down because honestly I don't think our fanbase could do it without that prompting, many people are there for every reason other than the game and can't be bothered with knowing what down it is.

And yes would someone tell that idiot to shut the hell up when we change QB's!
 
I am pretty sure he is the person who got arrested.
Let's clarify this once and for all... It is NOT the Blue / White guy. I lived on the same floor with him while at UConn and it is NOT him.

Are you guys talking about Dale, the Blue-White guy? It is definitely not him that got arrested.

I did, and that is exactly what I want to see.

No, a guy before the games, seemed like 5 minutes or so before the teams took the field he'd het out there and try to get a barely half filled Rent energized by getting one half the stands to yell blue, then the other half to yell white, and repeat for an awkward and unsuccessful 2 minutes. the idea is not terrible, just the timing. No one in their seats, people still mulling around. Wait until we're in a tv timeout, keep him down by the band or cheerleaders and show him on the jumbotron, w/ cheerleaders helping, and get the crowd going. A much easier task when people already into the flow of the game.

No not Dale, the cheerleader coach who used to lead the Blue - White chant at the stadium before games.

The cheerleaders have 4 "U"s and 4 "CONN"s ... get half the stadium to say "U" and the other half answer with "CONN".

If Michigan can divide the stadium into 8 sections and spell M-I-C-H-I-G-A-N, then damnit we can divide the stadium in half!!!!!

Your wrong on this. The person arrested was counselor sup in a prison and had a sexual relationship with an inmate. He also happened to be the cheerleader coach. He was not the guy on the field leading the blue and white cheers.

as I said in an earlier post I was only able to find one picture of hands being cuffed and they were white, the guy that led the cheer was black. More amazing is that there do not seem to be any photos of the guy, Neal Kearney, who did it.

Not The Blue-White guy...the coach who lead the Blue Side/White Side cheer.

The sideline reporter has quickly become a joke among students. Do we really need her talking about this and that at every TV timeout? I get that they're trying to keep the fans engaged through the 2 or 3 minute commercial break but at some point it's too much. If they wanted to give ADPP an opportunity to speak they would have been better off announcing it over the PA system.
My god, she's awful. How wooden and monotone can someone get? Good thing she's easy on the eyes.
 
Too bad about the cheerleader guy. At one of the West Point games, he beat the Army guy at "who can hold the up the cheerleader with one arm the longest" competition. They were not happy.

Agreed. I am talking about the on the field guy. The guy who got busted was in his late 40s and named Neal Kearney. The on the field guy is around 40 and is not named Neal Kearney. Just want to make sure my old college buddy is not wrongly accused of doing something he had nothing to do with. I know this is not a court of law, but felt obligated to chime in...
 
Apparently Emily was openly cheering in the press box for UConn during the WV game. Needless to say, some of the other people in there were not pleased.
 
I will give them props, that at least we're trying something. This being said, not a huge fan of the interviews, or the DJ (I mean really, a friggin DJ at a college football game). I'd rather hear our band getting something going, or the dude w/ the mike doing his bit during TV timeouts, etc...
Roger that. The friggin DJ and interview girl are ridiculous. People are looking for some good old fashioned college football tradition not a hip rave party. Marketimg 101- market to the people that are paying the bills and filling te seats - beer drinkin, hotdog eatin football fans.

Emily is a friend of mine and I understand as a journalist you're supposed to be objective but she did, in fact, go to UConn and is an alum just like many of us. Please give her a break.
 
I freaking hate Emily Noonan, sorry, but I do. I wish he ripped the mic from her and never gave it back.

They're shoving Emily Noonan down my throat, and I don't like it.

Just because she's attractive doesn't mean I want to listen to her ask people stupid freaking questions 10x a game.
Turned you down, huh? Let it go.
