Excuses, excuses. We have a large enough enrollment and small enough arena that it shouldn't matter. If students were that interested in attending games they would, whether school is in session or not. The problem is that there are many other options to do right now and those rank higher on their priority list than attending UA basketball games.

People yelled pretty loud for that free pizza!

Being on break is no excuse for poor attendance. The vast majority of the student population lives within an hour of campus. Plus, being on break doesn't change the amount of alumni and general population that could attend games. The real reason people don't come to games is because they don't care. They are OSU fans and they couldn't care less about UA. There is no reason to try to blame the attendance on arenas and winter break, etc.. The only way this ever changes is if we say to hell with the 20 game a year win streak and start going after some of the big dogs. Get some big wins, get to the tourney and make some noise. Repeat for several years. We need to be relevant to more than the MAC for people to think that the program is worth their time and money.

Blowout Louisiana Tech

I watched Rice destroy Fresno State last night....why is this even being brought up "if" we should move if we have a chance. We should beg!

I just look at performance on the field....I just watched Louisiana Tech beat a Big Ten team. Say whatever you want, but C-USA has been impressive in bowl season. If this is the brand of football that comes to info every week sign me up!!

Anyone still convinced that C-USA isn't a step up after watching then completely destroy the 2 MAC teams they have been matched up with? The two games have been men vs boys.....if we get a chance to make the move and don't then we are either stupid or content being a JV team in the worst conference in America.

Why is big dog playing so much? He is awful. He is so slow that it is painful to watch. He can't jump, he can't move. He is not a d1 basketball player. Get him out!!

We have zero inside presence on offense. We have basically turned into a jump shooting team. That better change or else we will never have any consistency at all.

That was simply looking at 4 and 5 star players. This article gives you a little better idea where college players come from. Ohio has 3 fold the recruits of North Carolina. http://www.footballstudyhall.com/2013/9/11/4718442/college-football-state-texas-california-florida

North Carolina is not a better state for recruiting than Ohio. You have florida, Texas, California, Georgia, Louisiana and Ohio as the top 5 or 6 states for talent.

The MAC is the butt of football jokes around the country for it's pathetic pedigree. Even our most important demographic (Ohio) believes this. We should jump ship the first chance we get.

Ritossa should have caught that ball.

Pathetic play calling, lack of skill and talent at the wr position, lack of a consistent running game...... I am not taking all the blame off Pohl because he often threw lazy and inaccurate passes, but the only quarterback that would have been successful this year was a Braxton Miller type that could just create with their feet. Guys rarely got open.

We already have a starting tailback next year. His name is Donnell Alexander. Lane will play at linebacker next year with March and Mizzell gone.

I don't see Kyle transferring out, but I also don't see him as the starter next year. I hope he has a great offseason and proves me wrong.

I am to the point that I wish someone would take him. This staff gets out coached almost every week.

Where is Socrates???

Hide the iced tea

Are you F'ing serious???

For shame!!!!!

Do you expect him to say that we are going to crush everyone? It is still his out if we lose. "I told you guys not to expect too much" For heavens sake, listen to an unknown coach up in New England. You would think he has coached the most averages teams in NFL history for the last decade.

"And we've never even won eight games in a season," said Bowden. "We have a chance to do a lot of good things this year." This was said when we were 4-2 going into Ohio. I doubt a lot of good things is getting smacked down by Ohio, Ball State, BGSU and Buffalo.

right...because the coaches had no expectations

“Right now, I’m just trying to play ball and get to a 10-2 record,” he said. Ten and two? “Ten and two,” he answers. “The atmosphere around here? The losing culture is over. We’re not having that no more.” Right....the players didnt have unrealistic expectations. They haven't won a damn game since.
