Re: What can The Blue Crew do to get more students in the seats at the TAC?
Nice to know. Hopefully this dorm thing will work out big. I mean there are tons of kids in the dorm. Many who would be sitting in their rooms looking at "the best thread ever II" or sleeping. If the RA's get on them maybe we can get a few hundred extra students in the TAC.
How does "the blue" feel about sitting in the stands. I bet you guys would bring alot more energy into the stands if you sat in the bottom section next to the band. Also you can talk more crap without getting in trouble. Also if you stand up in the front row, people will have to stand up behind you !
I WANNA SEE SOME HUUUUUGGGEEE SIGNS TOMORROW T!!
Re: What can The Blue Crew do to get more students in the seats at the TAC?
Or The Blue could disperse themselves among the entire student section and get every student involved. Maybe their enthusiasm would rub off on others instead of just being concentrated in one area. Maybe all of the students would stand and yell the whole game if prompted by The Blue. Just a suggestion.
Re: What can The Blue Crew do to get more students in the seats at the TAC?
Tomorrow I am gonna make announcements in all my classes if the teachers will let me about the games. Just get up and say "Hey we have two basketball games coming up for the bulldogs, biggest games for the dogs in a decade, we haven't lost at home all year, we are 7-1 and first place in the WAC. COme on out it is exciting, and the dawgs need your support, see you there"
Or something to that effect. If all of us students make sure to do that we made get 100 extra people or so who didn't know about the game till you make the announcement. Hope some of you guys read this before class, if not tell your friday's class about saturdays game.
Whhhooopp!! Beat some Wolfpack B....Ass

I think spreading out is a good idea. If they can get the students into it, then maybe all the old alumni will get into it!

Back in my Tech days you would get extra bonus points for making such an annoucement in many profs' classes.

I just happened to notice the folder the other day when I scrolled on down the page. We need more posters on this thread.
I just now found it. Talking about goosebumps, I would kill to see those old games.

Don't Forget to Mention It is FREE for Students!
Re: What can The Blue Crew do to get more students in the seats at the TAC?
I made an announcement in my class today. Too bad that there were only 9 people there, and there didn't seem to be much interest. "I have too much homework...I have a test tomorrow...I have a meeting..." But my professor said he would come!

Good try, BLUE! Since only your professor is gonna come, then maybe you should go stand in the quad with a megaphone and tell everyone! :icon_wink :thumbsup:

I have a huge math test tomorrow and I am still going to the game.
Re: What can The Blue Crew do to get more students in the seats at the TAC?
Ya, I have a huge anatomy test tomorrow, and I won't miss a minute of Tech basketball tonight.

To firedog: haha!! i think that would scare people off kinda like brother jim did last year condemning every tech student in the plaza to hell.
Re: What can The Blue Crew do to get more students in the seats at the TAC?

HAHA!! You caught me Doc, but don't you mean ploy, not plow?
Anyways, I am not the only person that thinks spreading The Blue is a good idea. Did you notice that one half of the student section was standing and half of the student section was seated throughout the game? The Blue had about twelve members standing in the area between the stands and the floor seats. I don't think it would have been a bad idea for them to migrate over to the other side of the student section where everybody was sitting to get them to stand and cheer. In my opinion, The Blue are noisemakers, and the student section as a whole has the potential to be one LOUD voice. I would like The Blue to do what's best for Tech and not what satisfies themselves. I am not saying that The Blue is doing a bad job; I just think that there is a ton of potential with The Blue. Keep up the spirit and let it diffuse!!
BTW, have fun with the travel donations in Carbondale while I'm studying for finals. I'm jealous. Ya'll will have to yell extra-loud for me. :)
And where are the huge signs????

Sorry bout the signs... I pulled an all nighter studying for two exams and only got an hour and a half of sleep. That was my fault. I commend you on being so focused on the game, we need more fans like you, but I know you didn't even notice The Blue if what you said in your post was true. We ran up and down the sidelines all game. I also got all of the frat boys that sat courtside to stand up the entire game. And then there were about 7 or 8 out of the 16 painted members running around the entire TAC trying to get fans to stand up and cheer. I personally gave away money (out of my pocket, not The Blue's money) to the loudest fan in the sections behind the goal. It was the only way to get them to do anything. Point being, if that's not trying to help my team out then I'm spent...
