    Yeah Quang, I think the refs didn't like it, because we'd yell at them when we got on the court, haha. I loved it.

    I'd really like to see the Hoop Troop pick out one player (maybe their best player, or their fattest, or ugliest) and really get on her during the game. It may be a little mean, but I've seen what can happen when the Hoop Troop REALLY gets under someone's skin. If you can get a player to the point where she is flipping off the band or almost crying from insults, you can be CERTAIN that she is not focusing on the game. Now THAT is home-court advantage.

    I think on defense we need to be more organized. Sometimes we don't even do anything...even when we're still in the game. My personal preference is the jumpin and yellin that most big schools do on defense. Its simple and LOUD. Granted our students are spread out but we could atleast make sure that we're yellin. But more importantly I think we need to be doing something on every possession and doin something relatively easy.

    Thank you HP for the entertainment...y'all are awesome.

    Since the move from the lower bleachers a few years ago the energy changed a little. The band isn't right there next to the court so alot of the stuff said gets lost and only group cheers are heard. Also with out the metal stands to bang on there's alot less noise created.

    Why the move? I can understand if the TAC was packed and you wanted the band to be able to play for all the fans........but not that many people go. I think the move is ridiculous. The Hoop Troop was much more effective when they were closer to the court.

    All hail BJP and his profound observations! Let's not forget that Hoop Troop has been the premier cheering, taunting and heckling group all this years, and for that we prase Jim Robken and his band of merry men

    And that's why they pay tfor the Band to go to the WAC tourni, and NCAA and not the Blue. Plus condsidered the Greatest Pep-band in the Nation. (Acourding to S.I. see link bellow, #30)

    Actually the reason they PAY the band to go and not the Blue is because the Blue would go for free.

    Re: The Hoop Troop!!!

    Yea that is what I was meaning but I am working on little sleep. I meant the Blue would pay their own way. I don't mean any of this as a knock on the HT because like the article says they are the greatest pep band. Also what does the HT do that makes them the funniest band in the land? I don't know what other pep bands do because all I have seen is HT and I have no comparison.

    Re: The Hoop Troop!!!

    Most other bands just play, they don't cheer very loud, if at all. When were at the tourni we'll dance to the other teams songs and as Jrob puts it "steal focus." Most other bands don't do any of the horn flashes we do.

    For more i'd refer to Germdawg, qng001, Bjude, or Bulldawg03, They were in it alot longer than me, and are the "old People" of Hoop Troop, (Sorry Quang)

    That must suck for other schools to not have a pep band as into the game as HT.

    Juice... I also can varify.... the Hoop Troop is one of the best bands in the land... PERIOD!!! They have added a few cheers that didn't happen whe I was in, but it was still a huge amount of fun. These guys only get a $50 (unless it's been changed) scholarship for Hoop Troop as well... so it's all passion.
