The fans he was talking to aren't paying attention enough to see what he said anyways.
We're so worried about "alienating" fans...Well, what we've done the last 25 years hasn't worked either.
I lost faith in USM fans in 2005, when we couldn't sell out the last home game of the regular season against the #3 team in the nation that had Aaron Rodgers at QB.
I was at that game. It was on a weeknight, IIRC. I thought that was a pretty decent crowd all things considered. That was not that great a USM team by the standards of the day. (Wasn't it 2004 though?)
I think that game got rescheduled to later in the year due to a tropical storm or something in September. I was in school then, but couldn't make it that game, which I hate I missed.

Some of my fondest USM memories are from that year... watching us beat Nebraska on TV, the home game against UH. I can't remember, but it may have been 2004 when Corso / Herbstreit came to MM Roberts. My God how we've fallen.

Should Southern Miss be this surprised when the Alumni Association constantly runs off alumni with their insulting behavior. I'm now a Hawaii fan!
What does the "alumni association" have to do with what the football coach said. For the record i have no problem with what he said. But then again, i was there.

FANS!!!!!!!! No alumni equals fewer fans which is what you are wanting! 36,000 empty seats should help keep a good coach. BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We sure have some fine ones, don't we? Obviously PINEAPPLE has his panties in a wad after being called out by Monken. Looks like we have some wonderers from Eaglepost on here.

RE: Todd Monken throws a hissy fit......
I think what our tropical fruit-inspired poster is trying to say is that the Alumni Association treats people poorly, which causes people to disassociate themselves from the university, which in turn contributes to football attendance problems.
I'd ask him to elaborate, but don't want to be blamed for him continuing to post.

Typical bitcher. Always pointing the finger at someone who has nothing to do with what they are bitching about.

I find it hard to believe that anyone could've actually gotten banned from EP. That it was self-policing was its best quality before it went to crap. BGN, however, will ban you merely for saying something other than gold is your favorite color.
It does look like EaglePost broken at the moment. There's nothing but an error message on the home page.

Yeah, EP seems to be down. I guess the Dog-Slaying Hero of Canebreak Trail, Nugget's Ghost, and Coach Carmody's annoying kid will have to get their kicks elsewhere.

Sad thing is that particular Carmody was considered the nicest of the entire family.

Yeah, I'd say for a guy who's a Carmody, a Bammer, and an EaglePost member, he's actually less of a prick than you'd expect.

I think I've figured out who some of you guys are on BGN. Do any of you guys post on GoldenEaglePride.com, the Scout site? Drew does a great job over there.

Got the same name everywhere. I ain't hiding nothing. Some on EP have three or four names so they can talk to themselves.
