I wish the student section would stop with the "NA na na na hey hey hey goodbye" chant they do once the team puts the game out of reach. We should've put this game away midway through the first half. When you gloat about barely pulling out a win in a game you should have won handily, it just looks stupid to me. We're national champions. Were better than that.

If we're winning when they're singing it, I don't give a s---. The student section can shoot the opponent's mascot for all I care about it.

If it is West Virginias mascot the students could even claim self defense.

I know our students are generally not Rhodes Scholars, but even for us it would be kind of silly to sing it if we're not winning, no?

When you do the chant mid way through the first half you look like idiots.

Few things worse on a message board than a guy who didn't go to the game bitching about something innocuous the student section is doing.

I heard someone yell "go back to Chicago" on a Boat free throw. I imagine that was the guy? I sure hope it wasn't one of our fans.

I sorta laughed because he isn't actually from there. Aurora is an hour away.

1. Were you even at the game? (hate when fans who don't go to games complain about fans who do)

2. I wish non-students would do something other than just clap occasionally...act like your supporting your favorite college basketball team, not watching the PGA.

as long as the students are making noise - who cares
Im just glad they don't just jump up and down as say hackneyed things like at Puke BUT would love to see the students surround the lower level like at Puke.

Yeah that was the guy. But it wasn't "go back to Chicago" it was stuff like "you aren't from Chicago" and "you lived in the suburbs." The guy was being a jerk to everyone in the section behind the USF bench.

I think he was the father of Troy Holston Jr.. He and his wife were wearing his uniform. Mayb Troy is from Chicago proper and this was some kind of diss at Boat for not really be from the "real" Chicagoland area.

You probably could have started it before tip if it's a conference game for UConns women.

I don't know. I saw the girl you are talking about, but this guy was flipping birds at us and pounding beers in just a regular gray sweatshirt. He pulled out a Spiderman mask later, was an interesting character.

This guy obviously is doing it right. Kinda sounds like the man.

Lol Spider-Man mask. Check
Pounding beers. Check
Regular gray sweatshirt. Check
Flipping off opposing fans. Check


Yup we have confirmation, he IS the man.
Sign him up for our rooting team.

I would love to see the "left, right, left, right SIT DOWN" chant when a guy fouls out be put to bed. Without fail, the player who fouls out waits right before our guy at the line is ready to shoot his FT. As he's hoisting the shot, the quiet of the arena is disrupted with a loud "SIT DOWN!" I've seen plenty of FTs missed.

For every single one of our other FTs taken at Gampel or XL, you can hear a pin drop (actually you can hear the buzz of the arena lighting and usually 1 yahoo screaming because they're a visitor's team fan). I don't understand that, as a basketball school, we haven't figured out that yelling "SIT DOWN!" can be disruptive. Especially considering that by the time a player fouls out, it's usually the 2nd half and 2nd half FTs are crucial points down the stretch.

Also, it's super dumb.

Amazes me what people take the time to complain about
