The View from my Section (with apologies to Biz)

If the receivers aren't capable of shame from sheer incompetence no amount of yelling is going to help. The coach figured they probably knew they sucked and yelling at them wouldn't make them better receivers.

I agree. I don't like coaches calling kids out for dropping passes. You try to encourage positives, and you don't get there by yelling at people.

It was sarcasm....

My bad ... carry on ... nothing to add here ...

I don't think it's a coincidence that people who can't tolerate bad play or teams quitting, have attitude problems and quit on the team.

 

[freescooter]

Yeah that game wasn't winnable in the fourth quarter. Yet they had the ball and a chance to tie when it 'ended'.

That's the strange thing...as horrible as we played, we had a chance to pull something out at the end...You can't ask for much more, especially when you play that poorly.

Frankly, I understand people leaving early given the level of play Saturday. I understand reacting to being sucker punched.

What depressed me more about our fan base was the low attendance and lack of crowed enthusiasm at the start of the game.

Considering the weather, we had something to play for and we were coming off a win I was very surprised at the lack of fans. Not a good sign.

Don't get excited for Saturday, either then. Kids still won't be back on campus as classes don't start back until Monday. Scheduling home hames the week before and after thanksgiving break sucks. I don't imagine anyone ever gives it consideration, nor am I implying that they should. It's going to suck again. Probably worse as most probably feel the season is lost.

Every state school in the country is still on Thanksgiving break on Saturday. Some student bodies will care enough to get to their stadiums and help make their programs big time. Others will not. It is what it is, but this fanbase needs to realize that they, and not just Randy Edsall and Jeff hathaway and John Swofford, contribute to this program not moving forward.

I am sorry, but you really cant put the quality of the product on the field on us fans who buy season tickets and the donation that goes along with them. This team did a lousy job this past Saturday. I , as I am sure many of you will be signed up to buy my 4 season tickets next year, but don't put your sanctimonious blame on me.

I blamed you personally? Seriously?

Recruits were here on Saturday. You don't believe that the enthusiasm of fanbases can't be relevant to their decisions? Or you don't believe that attracting the players we want can make us better?

You said it pal, not me.

Things aren't any better in Cincy, and they're actually winning.

What this program is missing most is . . . "AND THAT'S ANOTHER UCONN TOUCHDOWN". Put some excitement back into the game. Go out and start recruiting (and landing) playmakers.

 

[Jarhead_1775]

Oh is that all?

 

[whaler11]

For the love of God. UConn isn't the Red Sox or Yankees. If people don't support them in a 4-6 season coming off a FRIGGING BCS BOWL that was achieved in less THAN A DECADE IN A BCS CONFERENCE...

THERE WILL BE NOTHING TO SUPPORT GOING FORWARD.

Did we not witness opening day at Michigan last season. When coming off back to back debacles, they put together the largest crowd in college football history (at the time) against a frigging Big East team?

You can sit around and bitch about BCU keeping UConn out of the Big East or you can show up at the god damn stadium for 60 minutes and show that the team is worthy of more. Take your pick.
