If its not obvious I only care about football and could care less about bball....End of rant...

I get it and not directed at you but this attitude is another reason some don't think JMU is ready for FBS. Supporters of the "big boys" support the program and not just one or two sports.

Some fans complain about students not coming out to FB games. What's the difference when 90% of the FB fans never go out to see and support any other sports?

Even though a fan/supporter doesn't like a certain sport, I would encourage you to try to catch as many as possible when you're on campus. All of our student athletes work the tails off and they do notice and appreciate the support.

My point was they shouldn't start basketball till around Thanksgiving. That's what they used to do..Then there would be less overlap.
