    Re: Had to point it out

    Let me point something out -

    The ONLY thing I said was that the student section may not want to do the HOW BOUT THEM DAWGS when OUR team is fixing to shoot a free throw - nothing more nothing less

    Simple cheering 101...

    And you might want to step back and realize that some of these individuals on the board are the keys players that are providing the financing to help put this student section together and alot of these individuals are at every single home game and have been for years -

    Just something to think about...

    Re: Had to point it out

    Yes i agree..I respect everyone who financially supports Tech...and love all the old players/alumni for their support.

    At the same time we want to continue getting support from current students such as myself who are not able to support through giving money at the time.

    We just show up at games, cheer for the dawgs and do our best to get everyone else to.

    Re: Had to point it out

    I've got to agree. We are not just disrespectful kids doing our own thing. We love tech too. Aren't we the students who many on this board are trying to win over?

    About the new and improved section, we are extremely grateful for a front row place to cheer on the dawgs! Thanks to all that made it happen!

    I've tried to let this go, but it's stuff like this that really hinders our enthusiasm and support.

    You're welcome. Now quit feeling sorry for yourself and go take a course in "Cheering 101", and then BE LOUD!!! We're not asking much from the students. Just go out and yell like every other student body in America! :icon_wink:

    And while your at it, take "Get Your Panties Out of Wad 201"

    Just kidding. Keep up the good work. I have a feeling y'all are going to get a lot of help real soon. Everybody loves a winner.

    But you dudes were in on the ground-floor and for that you deserve a lot of credit.

    Re: Had to point it out

    haha I can speak for BAW that we just get worked up because the other students won't get into the games..

    I turned around when we were up by 2 with a few minutes left trying to get the students behind me to stand up and they looked at me like i was crazy, we stilll have a long way to go but just have to keep winning

    Don't worry about the other students....

    And remember that it is SUPPOSE TO BE FUN - if you are not having FUN, it is hard to give the team the proper support they deserve and need -

    If they see you are having FUN, they will want to be part of the group having fun -

    That's the key....

    Re: Had to point it out

    I remember very well having a Tech officer tell my friends and I to quiet down while attending a football bame in the late 80's. Some Tech traditions die hard. There will always be a group at Tech who firmly believe that support should not start until you start sending in your check to the alumni association!

    How does the Tech officer know you haven't sent in your check to the alumni association? Do you attend games now?

    Re: Had to point it out

    I was not saying anything about the officer knowing about my check. I was simply referring to the current student discussing about people not getting into the games!
    I apologize if my comment was confusing. And yes I still attend when work does not interfere.

    He was commenting that some people don't appreciate student support of athletics- that "support should not start until... alumni..." - that only the way 'old' people cheer for/support our teams is effective or appropriate.

    At least, I think that's what he was saying.

    I ran into this sort of problem a few times, but not as much since the culture has started to change within Tech athletics.

    Re: Had to point it out

    Thank you for saying it better than I apparently did. I am very glad that the culture is starting to change! If people are not encouraged to show support as students then it is hard to expect these same people to show support as alumni!
