I can feel it
Was us back in the day.Could not be us
Who cares, it's in Lubbock - that is nowhere near enough to compensate for the location..
I had you pegged at 8:34am this morning. View attachment 72921
Well it's true - have you been there, I have, but my perspective is informed by a friend from Texas who went to Tech and says it's sand storms all day, it's miserable - red sand everywhere, walking across campus was like getting sand blasted.
Hartford, sucks, but you can get to NYC, Boston, and even Providence in short order - that's the difference and it's a big difference.
So a really good team doesn’t get fans excited? 15-4, top 25 fighting for a Big East title doesn’t get fans excited? If that the case our fan base is massively overrated. Phog Allen, Cameron Indoor, etc. those places are massive home court advantages in mediocre years. Such a weird excuseGotta have a great team again. The rock fights aren’t exciting UConn fans. This is a 4 title, 5 Final Four fan base. You aren’t bringing them back in droves with an abundance of missed layups, no one that can drive to the hoop and a shooting guard that can’t shoot.

That may be it. I agree that it may have to do more with the style of play than the record itself, but has the University done to make it enjoyable for both students and non-students? You can't think of anything new and exciting. I mean they don't even let signs in. They cut the student section out of the XL center and told students at one point to not go to a game.Gotta have a great team again. The rock fights aren’t exciting UConn fans.

UConn fans as a whole have reached a sense of entitlement that will likely never allow this type of atmosphere in Storrs or XL again. Too many causal fans that go to the games for an outing and to watch a win. Lose a game and suddenly the sky if falling, the team is terrible, we don’t have a good coach etc etc.
It’s sad the crowds at neutral site games our fans as a whole are louder because it’s the real fans at those games that make the noise and are into the game.

Our fan base is overrated if we only support great teams. It is what it is. Take it up with God.LOL. Wake me up when Phog Allen or Cameron have teams that have the same 7 year lull we've had. Those teams are top 10 EVERY year. Such a crap comparison.
