Recently they thought has crossed my mind on more than a few occasions. I haven't noticed the giveaways this season. Certainly not at the Panther arena, and definitely not at the K. They also changed up the chips and queso for the 3pts. Lackluster performance/giveaways/or what have you, students aren't showing up. Being one of the few people who goes to every game, it was eery with an almost silent court this last Saturday for both games. Even before this it was apparent there's no student fans and it's disheartening.

Season is early. Actually student attendance has been pretty solid at the games. Remember who might have ended chips and queso? The deal to me actually sucked since it lack all locations.

Giveaways don't usually draw students to games. A buzz draws students, and from what I gather there's no buzz on campus.
Maybe if the team were Top 100 in the RPI/NET and had a tough strength of schedule, they'd be coming to games.

Good news, Jimmy: our AD made it clear in the spring of 2016 that a top 100 RPI and a top 100 schedule were necessary standards for our program. In fact, failing to meet those standards was apparently a fireable offense! So by golly, it was time to bring in someone who could meet those simple standards in men's hoops. I assume PBS and Kyle have their bags packed. Or maybe someone else should. Or maybe they all should. |

The Path to Prominence looking more like One way Ticket to Palookaville.....gotta stick with some alliteration here.

If the stated standards are to be evenly applied, it looks like the next stop for KR and PBS is Pottersville!

That's it! "No dogs! No loitering! No parking!" Why it's just like our program: No TV! No radio! No fans!

Don't you know that we are a leading candidate for the McCafferty trophy? (at least at this point), and the budget is being balanced. Talk about selective facts and spin. Will give credit to Braun for her political cunning and ability to "manage up", ie, snow the administration. Internally, hey, they now have on boarding and employee surveys. Pretty low bar on the Path to Prominence. As Fran mentioned earlier, her lack of measurable accountabilities in men's basketball metrics is so transparently obvious. I do not think either have ever seen so many buzzwords ....at least did not use "synergy" or "robust". Go Panthers!!!
