In house DJ
I was going to post in the wku thread after someone mentioned it, but it deserves it's own thread.

The DJ duo for basketball is doing a GREAT job in my opinion acting as MC for the games and his effort towards the end of the Marshall game really sparked the crowd. Want to give kudos to the admin for keeping that contract going and want to publicly show my support for them going forward.

Keep up the good work guys.

RE: In house DJ
Definitely well-deserved. They got the crowd on their feet 4min left to go and kept them there, got the place so loud. I said this in the Herd thread, but it was the best non-vcu game environment we've had in a longgg time. My wife who has been going with me to the games for the last 4 years still has never seen the Ted at its best, and that was a taste last night. That's what it looks like when we win.

Agreed. He does a great job and can hopefully drive student participation.

Yes...significant improvements from last year. He is what we've been missing on that front. Now, if we can get a bump in the band, and pull students in once the spring semester starts.

He does a great job. A lot of us are polite people who don't want to inconvenience those behind us. We just need someone to give us permission to get on our feet and get a little rowdy. He is doing a great job of providing that "permission" at the right moments.

And, just as important, he's pre-approved by the high priests of ODU decorum.

He does a great job ! I just wish the volume was a little lower. He helps build the game atmosphere and really gets the crowd going.

RE: In house DJ
His volume is fine. Maybe turn it down right before the 7 year olds scream into the mic as loud as they can lol. Also, he's doing a great job - but by some small chance he actually comes on here to read: the only thing I would fix is when ODU has the ball, make the crowd to the O-D-U chant, and when the other team has the ball, make the crowd "make some noise".

Carry on and keep on. Loving it. So much atmosphere and no students!

RE: In house DJ
Agree. Great job. I second the post above. Timing on chants can be improved and I'd like to see some additions that can add to our arsenal. BUT, it's a great starting point and he's doing a fantastic job getting people up and on their feet.

Doing a good job. The whole ODU chant thing he tried during We Will Rock You was a big swing and a miss. Sounded really dumb.

Yep. He really is doing a nice job, but even my kids thought the "Yell Big Blue" thing made no sense.

A swing and a miss on that one but overall he has a pretty good batting average. IMHO - He is so much better than "Hollywood" and I have a hunch he will continue to improve as he learns the crowd. Sure would be nice if he, or anyone else, could figure out how to get the students going but maybe that is no longer possible.

But if he reads this, I hope he keeps trying new things. He has done a really nice job, and I'd rather someone try something new and fail then never try anything at all.
