Thanks for posting. OU-C obviously needs a few more good players.

There's a follow up video with Jeremy Schapp after this one that does a better job of explaining it. Looks really cool.

Wish that could be rejuvenated. Some student leaders have tried to address this but with little support. At a school like Taylor, the students seem to realize that when they support their athletic teams, they are part of something bigger than themselves that builds community. But at Ohio, it's declined to the extent that the athletic dept has to cater to students through constant promotions to get even a halfway decent student turnout. And there is very little effort and imagination used in cheering, etc. What will it take to revitalize?

Groce and Holtmann are both part of this tradition....saw their fanboards talked about emulating it but deferred never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. Winter comes and asks how you spent your summer.....

Given the way OUr team is built, this would be a great idea to pivot off of rather than the stand. (though we need defense, so...)

I said CHALLENGE for the conference title, though winning it would be even nicer. And have a winning record.

I got in a hurry on my reply. Regardless, I'd hope one bad year doesn't affect student attendance that much. You have to believe this team is good enough to win more than they lose (I know you do) and they're surely entertaining.

I also think the increase in the overlap between football and basketball season that's occurred over the last few decades makes it harder for some students to get into basketball during the November-early-December time period. And, then by the second week in December they are either gone or getting ready to pack.
