Just crash the court and live with the consequences. I can't see "staging" the adrenalin, so why stage the celebration? Don't blame this on USF. Granted, it sounds as though their attempt at security hindered one of the brightest moments in recent Bulls history, but as a student and fan - I would have just taken my chances - along with a few hundered other people.

If you wanted to get on the court at the buzzer, there are ways to do it if you have any balls.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is common sense for security to tell the students to stop in the walkway and wait for Charlotte to leave the court, but there were 15 other ways for the students to get to the court when the clock hit :00. Just my opinion of the entire thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time, JUST DO IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little upset looking around and seeing no other students untill two minutes later. It definitly rained on the festivities. It would have been a betet idea to let the students run out on the other side of the court next to the bulls bench, this way Charlotte could have cleared off at the same time as the students were rushing.

I'm not his biggest fan either, but you are seriously bordering on derangement with your all out assault on him. It is one thing to try to express an opinion in this forum hoping for change, and another to take it to an extreme that makes everyone just ignore your opinion. Believe me, I know.
