Have a problem with the lack of pride at UA?


Recommended Posts

I was at the women's tennis match at Springside in Fairlawn yesterday. During the break between doubles and singles I go inside to get something to drink. While going in, I check out their bulletin board and see this:

A poster with Ohio State and Toledo's men's tennis teams schedule. Nothing at all posted inside the building about your 14-2, nationally ranked women's tennis team.

Now I understand the facility isnt owned by the university, but come on! I'd imagine we are paying them to rent out their courts.

starts at the top?

really?

You can post all the schedules of sweaty buckeyes and circlejerk rockets in random locations all you want... but what starts at the top is spending money to get Bowden/Amato, and to keep a Dambrot and Porter.

If posted schedules is your view of starting from the top, it's a lot different than mine.

you think having schedule's of other conference teams and the "flagship" school of Ohio, while having nothing about UA at a facility the university uses is acceptable?

And I said lack of pride. Which everybody on here has such a problem with.

I never said those at the top are making bad moves in regards to hirings, keeping coaches.

Don't just post about it... bring it up with the athletic department.

Posted schedules in some location is NOT about starting at the top. What the top has done has impressed the hell out of me. They are putting their money where their mouth is.

Now you do your part.

Personally, I would have ripped that other shit down. I've done it before back when I was a student on campus.

This picture is for men's tennis teams from colleges in the area (sorta). Akron doesn't have a men's team. I don't see a problem with that. Maybe they should throw up a women's poster, but there's no men's poster to put up.
