good call on getting the band involved, we always try to get stuff going. i think that we would be more effective if we were in the middle of the section, like in madison, we could be a unifying force between the right and left. if thats not possible at least get us more risers so we're not so cut off from the rest of the students. it gets lonely, but mainly i can't see!

idea.... I think that I might just buy a 12 pack of Jolt for the pre-game and get all hyped up. Maybe throw in a can of Sparks to ward off any inhibitions. Me & some others can go down to the cell super early, wait for the doors to open, and get prime seats for leading the student sections to chant in unison. Post-game can be the time for getting super drunk (if we want) and then we will actually be able to remember the game too! If everyone who wants to put themselves in charge can spread out I think we can control a lot of the "idiots" who drank to much or just don't know how to behave, as well as keeping all sides of the student section in unison.

Not sure that is going to happen, but that is a great and lofty goal. Students can get ripped before the game and keep a strong buzz throughout the game and it would be just as effective...When they get so f***in hammered they are useless...

For all you peeps out there that don't think cheering helps, you're DEAD wrong. A little cheer coordination wouldn't hurt either. I was here when Nate H. and Devin K. were allowed on the other side of the "rope off tingys." I know what they accomplished, i know i can do it. I did it all through HS and i try my damndest to keep people together and on the same page. The drunken idiots will not be a problem for me, I'll be there plenty early to get my rightful seat that is just left of the hoop. We'll have everything on lock down. I won't let anyone spoil our fun.
As for rushing the court on wed. LAME............what did we do, we won conference, 2nd consec. outright, 3rd with the share in 02-03. It was not needed, i talked to many players who were like what the heck? We don't rush unless you beat a top #25 and are unranked, or if you upset a #4-#1 seed in the tourny, and win your conf. tourny. Damn people, pay attention to ESPN.
lets not be tacky
i'm out enough said CL

I agree that it was not lame, We just won a conf. title on senoir night. The players that I ran into seemed to be enjoying it quite a bit, especially James! So In conclusion, Rush the court have a good time and stop b****ing, its not like we are Gonzaga or Duke winning conference everyyear!

I believe the rush was fairly warranted...given the conf. title and senior night. It also was a fairly challenging game that could've gone both ways early on. I believe Loyola rushed when they beat GB recently...now that's going overboard. However I do recall 2 years ago when we rushed at the KC, I believe we beat Butler and had also found out that UIC lost? I believe that was the scenario, giving us hosting rights @ the cell? Anyways, it was awesome, nice photo in the JS, and probably one of the few times UWM fans have done that at the KC.

Winning the entire conference is one of the best reasons to rush the court!! I don't know where you've been if you think that is stupid--but rushing the court for finishing 1st in conference is just as worthy as rushing after winning the conference tournament. The conference season is 16 games long -- the tournament is only 2 games!! I think it is just as important to show the team our support after winning 14 of 16 conference games as it is to show our support for winning 2 of 2 tourney games!!

I'm sure ESPN isn't the most reliable source. But about a year ago i saw a special little 15 minute tid bit that was directed at the "court rush."
Yeah its great we won on senior night, we could have had the players walk over into the crowd or something, i'm saying that you don't need to rush the court for a conference championship. Let's see, how many times has Illinois fans rushed the court, hmm......when did they have the reg. season title locked down. How many times do fans rush at Kansas, Kentucky, or Duke. Hello, once you start winning you have to draw the line. Theres kinda an unwritten rule about rushing, and if you peeps want to rag on me go ahead, i'm saying it wasn't needed, but no harm no foul.
Now when we do win the Conf. tournament and get the automatic bid into the big dance, then i'd better see everyone on the court.

I will personally get my loud ass on one side of the students and I'd hope someone else has enough vocal presence to be on the other. I'll talk to Devin and see if he is game. I can't wait, this will be the most coordinated we've been in a long time. I just have this feeling about it.

ps...........no one was b****ing about the rushing of the court, just stating my opinion
