It is time for the supporters to speak up. Put the pressure on the AD dept. Pull the players schollies and make them earn them back. Get a coach with fire in his belly! A new change has to be made. Maybe these suggestions are drastic, but just think about it. What could be worse????

I thought we already did by the looks of the crowds we get.

Would the AD notice a boycott? Kinda hard to boycott when you dont have fans anyway. Part of the reason it is so hard to win here is because we have crappy fans, now you want the few fans we have to leave? We4 might as well just shut down the program.

It'd be dumb to boycott. The players on the field deserve attendance. They're out there generally playing hard and executing a flawed system with decent results.

If they only executed a well-suited system to decent results we'd probably have a decent record.

Boycott isn't the way to go.  If anything, increased support is what you need when things are this bad.  The players can't help the position they are in.  It's the coach's job to recruit the talent that can play in the league they are in and if not, COACH them to maximize their potential to compete.  I really do believe the talent is there to be a .500 club this season.  You don't have leads in the second half as much as we've had without there at least being talent.  The problem is we have no idea how to protect a lead and close out games which is where good coaching comes into play.  A 16 point lead in the second half?  If they were good enough to get that kind of lead, they were good enough talent wise to keep it.  Lack of PREPARATION in how to handle presses and zones all goes to coaching unless they've harped on it every practice and they still can't do it due to low bball IQ. 

What in the world do they do in practice?

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
