In the article she quoted a number of students. I'm just trying to figure out what these kids need in order to go to a football game and enjoy it? They are saying all kinds of stuff like its not interactive enough, the band doesn't play student friendly songs and its "too family friendly". Why would the university cater to the student when 25 of them show up every game. This is a quote from one of the students in the article:
“The music is boring and everything is catered to families (even though we have family day) instead of us college students. Needs to be more interactive to hold our attention.”
Apparently they want to do keg stands after every score and have X-box's set up so they can play games while the football game is going on or something that entertains them outside of the actual game itself. When I go, I go to see the game and I always have even when I was a student.
Someone from the SGA or any of the focus group surveyed needs to defend the decision. Publicly. Better yet, someone that knows Miss Smith needs to get her to come onto RP so that we can have a conversation. If she wrote that piece with conviction, there should be no problem with that.
This is a personal hit job. I know for a fact that countless hours were spent concerning this situation, so Miss Smith needs to be held to account for her position.
I’ve been saying for years...do something similar to basketball 3-point shot for cash...have a challenge at the end of each quarter with a rolling pot....
Personally I think the only students that we need to speak to are the Fraternities and sororities. The rest of the student body will follow because these groups will have the best set ups (loudest music, grills, drinks, ETC) with the most people.
I saw the students while they were tailgating and they looks like they were having a great time.....
