I am happy with this team.   Golesh is not CJL different but so are the circumstances.  That was a different time and we were able to build slowly over time.  Now expectations have and were set high.

I mean, yea, you can question the stadium if you want. Here’s the thing though, people can’t say “we need to invest in the program to show we can commit to funding our sports program” and also sa

If you've been around and you how fans often react continued losing, this is not a new phenomenon. 

I really think we take it well compared to most others.  In the stands even.  People choose to enjoy and then go to a dark sense of humor vs getting all angry.  

It's almost reached Jets fan levels in comedy.  Anyway I think we are on the right track just got to calm down for a few games.

If they actually have those it would be interesting to attend.

also saw a team that hit harder on defense then I have seen in at least five years, probably actually back to 2007-09

Yes!  Coach mentioned in the press conference that these guys have been told over and over that they are last place and they came out swinging.  That implies coaching to me.  You had CBs in the WRs pocket and there weren't a ton of tackling gaffes like last 3 years.

you probably know this but I saw your mug on TV a few times during the game

Man, I don't think you saw me sitting in my hands.  My voice is still rehabilitating.  It was hot as hell, but kept cool with the beer.  It was fun to be there to support the team.  Loved every minute of it.

Saying the stadium isn’t worth it, that the money is being wasted?

Saying the coach needs to be fired after one game? Keep in mind we have been bad the last 4 seasons, we have new schemes/coaches/players AND a bunch of talent transferred out.

The reactions on this board are unreal.

I don't disagree with you, but those are opinions held in many places like Twitter, FB, the stands in the stadium and any publicly available media or social platform.  About the only place not with a person or two feeling that way is probably the LRS center or the Golesh household. 

It's really better for others to push towards the positive, sanity and the truth we see rather then to condemn "this board" for people speaking their minds.  If you've been around and you how fans often react continued losing, this is not a new phenomenon.  Don't let it get you spewing at others.

My son. 

When we got back last night we started watching the game (the angle of our seats was terrible - but that's the visitor seating).  That first pan in the stands where they got me, he said "They only got my elbow."  LOL.  To my right was him and then an aisle and empty seats basically.  In that space though was Little Golesh and some other kids including @jjlovecub's son.  He did a great job getting the fans fired up!

Most of the Bulls fans were up in the shade.

It was not a good day for filming the visitors section.

Uh, yes they can, and with some logic to back it.  While some think building a stadium is the silver bullet for success, others think there are more efficient ways to invest in athletics.  I think it is irrelevant, however, as I believe the OCS train has already left the station.

no doubt. The number of fans who have this drop dead need to get an OCS is a bit overdone. We are talking about 6 or 7 home games a season

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
