scheiss off Gary. Bitching about the crowd is my job.
Also. Don't blame the fans. Blame the [ steaming pile of Orgeron ] product you put on the field. Or maybe the athletic department and administration that has made it more than clear that fan loyalty means nothing to them. Only checkbooks.
I, like others on here, am irrationally loyal to our football team. No matter the temperature, time, or performance, I get to the game before it starts, cheer my ass off, and don't leave until the alma mater is sung. There used to be more fans like me until you redid the stadium and told your loyal fans that didn't want to pay for club seats or suites to go pound sand. You treat your fans like a business transaction, so don't be surprised when your customers respond the same way. I don't blame someone one bit if they choose not to bake in the sun while watching a team that looks like complete ass.
Amen. The KFC group, myself included, can argue with Maniac until the cows come home on what the administration did to the fanbase. Always been a catch22 in my book. Needed the money to play big boy ball, build a legit stadium, and get into a P5 conference. Us fans can argue in circles on how that should of/ could have been done. But Gary, your job is to not give up 41 points to SMU. You fix that then your attendance will follow. I'll bake in the sun but wont blame other who don't want to see SMU march up and down the field and spray confetti all over our field. I bet Dykes doesn't witch about the 15 people that show up to SMU home games. Instead he gets his team ready to leave no doubt.
