Go to the game to support the team

Send an email to the AD to voice your concern

Dont punish the team or the program by not attending a game

Best to tell the AD that you will attend the gsme to support the progrsm however as a fan you demand a change

Much better to support while voicing your desire for a change

All you'll do is make your own fanbase look like classless D'bags. I mean, I get it. Losing to USF never feels good and getting blown out the water by them absolutely sucks. That's not something to take out on the team though. Revenue over the course of the season is how you hurt Tubby, eventually someone will enact change. Show up, show up to cheer your team and tell the old man to go screw.

Consider the poster who suggested this. The best thing you can say about him is that he probably means well, but he is completely clueless.

Have averaged 6,192 in an arena which hold 18,119. Thought that was already happening. We are talking about as crowds which would only fill half of the MSC. Cincinnati game would be the only one which would be considered a sell out at the MSC (11,200 capacity for basketball).

LOL The administration doesn't give a rat's ass about your emails. As long as you show up and spend your money they will not do a thing to change.

The ONLY way to make change is to hit them in the pocketbook. Unfortunately the players will be dragged under the bus short term because of it, but it is something which has to happen for the longer term stability of the program.

If not Orlando may drag this program to depths which it may not recover from for a decade or more. The nastier it gets and the longer it drags out the less attractive the job becomes.

If you boycott the team, you're not a fan. You are doing nothing but being petty and hurting the program.

If you want another coach, the worst way to do it is by throwing a Hall of Fame coach under the bus and boycotting games. No coach worth his salt will want to enter that toxic area.

All evidence to the contrary. TV, conferences and schools turned college sports into a business. It is entertainment. A product. If the product isn't selling, you do what it takes to turn things around.

If you have a company in trouble needing new direction at the top spot, you hire a person who seems to have the right stuff. You pay that person top dollar for their service. And in two years that business has continued to not sell its product and losing valued customers. Sorry but it is time to move on. In the long run it will cost way more than just money to keep him. Seems to already have.

Then you are a fair weather fan. Fans (short for fanatics) do not abandon the program in tough times. If you can't support them at their worst, you don't deserve them at their best.

Well that one game at 2417 really killed the average. Looks like free tickets to Cincinnati game helped save the day.

Yeah we are ahead of schedule alright, we are just on the wrong bus.

So, how much of his $3 million per year did you contribute?

You don't get to make hiring and firing decisions.

Fans not showing up for games can force a administrations hand to make a change. So yes we in some way make decisions. So stop with the lame talking point.
