Good thinking here. Are you on Twitter? Chad Bush the radio announcer and Ryan Wooley the ESPN3 announcer are both active on Twitter and responsive to questions.
Good reminder to stand for Bond's 1,000th point too.
Not on Twitter, but I always sit 4 rows behind Chad and Ryan. I can ask them before game if they aren't busy broadcasting. Hope they can, and also Convo announcer. Stuff like this can build enthusiasm for the team, and in long run increase number of fans showing up. When people are apart of something, and they feel they can help team besides just watch, I think more people will return to watch.
Hi Mike1989, I'm the Convo Announcer. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to work on making that happen.

Don't forget to keep on voting each day. Tim is hands down better than his opponent. Tim does in game dunks on and over opponents vs his competitor doing some layup line dunks.

Dear Friends,
Tim Bond lost in the second round 51%-49%. Too bad, because I, of course, thought he would win.

The big story, folks, is that EMU's fan base was out voted by a D-II school.
And the D-II isn't Grand Valley or another very large, athletic power...

RE: Vote For Tim Bond in Dark horse Dunker
I wouldn't read too much into it. We have a legit chance to play in the NCAA D1 tournament this season, that's what we're focused on.
This is probably the biggest thing to ever happen for Arkansas Tech's team.
