GamedayConnor appreciation

[gampelcrazies]

Still not a fan of an MC games (I’m an old man) but give credit where due.
I yelled at Connor at halftime telling him to give a few kids in our section some t-shirts.
Well he marched up to our section and personally delivered them. Some happy young fans. A really classy move.
Thank you Connor!

I don’t think anyone ever said a bad thing about Conor as a person. The entire MC thing just blows. Not really his fault.

Wish he was louder.

Yup. Nothing against him but our program shouldn’t need a hype man

Bring back Emily Noonan

You're in the extreme minority here.

The entire audience is captivated when she's out there, which is hard to do for timeout entertainment.

You are correct. Fans love it. I’ve actually never seen anything like it. She was at the BE tourney last year and got the same response.

Went to a kids baseball all star game in New Britain where the Rock Cats played and they announced each batter’s name on the PA system. Out of the first 18 batters 16 were named Connor. The other 2 were Chase.

One thing I appreciate about him is that he seems to have a good sense of humor. And he’s definitely nice to kids, which is probably even more important.

He seems like a good guy. Personally I'd prefer to get the band more involved on GameDay, but I'm a music nerd.

The pep band and marching bands should have a bigger role at both basketball and football games.

I was VERY disappointed in UConn MSG behavior in March. Nova had better turnout, louder, and more engaged.

I was there, but can't remember. I'm not doubting you, but it's hard to believe that Nova could ever have better crowd than us in MSG.

Let the guy live. I do not pay much attention, but having him MC the games does not take away from the game day experience IMO. On the flip side I think there are more who would say he adds to the gameday experience than those that feel he subtracts from the experience.

It shouldnt be but it was necessary for me to do last march against Nova at BET at MSG. I was disgusted by the fact I had to implore my (Uconn ticket) section to stand, and then half of them didnt and then yelled at me for imploring them. Times have changed I guess.

We need better millennial entertainment and screw our teams traditions. I was VERY disappointed in UConn MSG behavior in March. Nova had better turnout, louder, and more engaged.

UConn MSG crowds have been lacking. I expect this year to be different.

Connor is like a fingernail on a chalkboard
