Serious Michigan question

[Husky25]

If the AD isn't listening to letters, if the media won't take our calls during the coach's show, and if the product continues to decline, maybe walking out of the stadium is one of the only ways to get our voices heard.

If the Powers-that-be are as financially short sighted as some believe them to be, this is not likely. They already have your ticket money. The only ones sad to see the stadium empty is Global Spectrum.

That's when you have to get the alumni groups and booster clubs involved. whichever group contributes the most will have the greatest impact. First things first. Are you sure there is sufficient support to dump the head coach. If so, has any candidate given any indication hat they want to go to UConn.

UConn is two thirds of the way into the largest fund raising campaign in the history of the school. There will never be a better time to organize the fan base to do what you want done. Some one needs to step up to do it, or not. But if you don't do it now, you're passing on your best opportunity.

At the risk of evoking a Jim Calhoun moment that I'd like to forget: Get some facts!!!

Yahoo (as opposed to Google) Robert Burton Pasqualoni. The man's name is affixed to the training complex, and I'm not referring to "Coach" Pasqualoni. You tell me if there is support to relieve the "Coach" from his current responsibilities from THE booster.

We really need to stop feeding the troll.

If this guy contributes as much or more than the 230,000 alumni then you're screwed. If not, the voice of 230,000 disgruntled fans should have some pull.

Yes. We want things just the way they are.

Flamers and trolls welcome. UConn fans, not so much.

I don't understand what you are talking about. Robert Burton is one of the largest boosters of UConn. He and many of the football fans (at least 1/6 of the alumni, by a rough calc.) are on the same page. How does that spell being screwed?

It's really difficult have a conversation/debate with people who don't know what they're talking about. Therefore I will stop. It's not worth my time...

More clicks and posts equal more money.

Sorry, I thought you were saying that their top booster was a PP supporter. My point ws that there are 230,000 UConn alumni out thre which should trump a single supporter, no matter how much he gives the school. If the top supporter doesn't like PP, dumping him shouldn't be a problem.
