Sheesh, it aint exactly up to date is it? The best part about online is it can be fast and current. Their news is practically 2 months old.

But then again, I'm an optimistic kinda guy.
Agreed - this is a team, coaching staff, and season worth celebrating! This is what being a Monarch fan is all about! Celebrate the good times and work through any rough stretches. It’s much easier to follow Kentucky, UNC, Villa, etc - but I’ll take rooting for the Monarchs over them any day!
I don't follow basketball.. but I had no idea that the team was doing so well. I don't hear anything about the team on campus.
Maybe thats why student dont go to the games.
Students have to donate through their fees, so no need for them to try to get the students involved it seems. However, that short sightedness will bite ODAF in a few years when there are no new donors to replace us, because there will be no new adults who were excited and engaged as students who now want to give back.

RE: Game atmosphere SOLUTIONS
This was crafted by the students at Oklahoma State for their game against Kansas. I wonder if we could do something like this, print off sheets to put in the student section. Not exactly this, but something like it to explain what our chants are

When I was at UT, they used to make sheets like these for big bball games. But they provided a lot more ammo and were much meaner. They had nicknames, hometowns, parents, siblings, and girlfriend's among others. Basically, it gave you a roadmap of what to say when they were at the free throw line.

RE: Game atmosphere SOLUTIONS
I know at Georgetown they do silly stuff like have a game where no one brings cellphones. Or another game where they have like a valentines theme and discount for couples. And other stuff like that. I think it's worth a try for us.

RE: Game atmosphere SOLUTIONS
Start a "I believe we will win" chant and jumping up and down session before the start of the game.

I'm really happy with the promotion but didn't JJ say he didn't want to build this game up too much?

I believe he said he was going to guard against building it up too much for the team. He is fine with the rest of us/fans going as nuts as we want. Big crowd, lots of noise, GO ODU!
