Long concession lines when we have 11k people in a 41k seat stadium is not big time. Having security guards standing behind students making sure every word they say is Disney approved is not big time. Promoting well for 2 days out of a 10+ month period is not big time. People having to drive to your box office during the week to avoid insane fees instead of being able to purchase online is not big time. Choosing to ignore your team’s biggest accomplishments is not big time. Driving students away by moving them back and forth is not big time. People telling you for 5 years your speaker system is insanely loud and ignoring them is not big time. Scanners never working is not big time. Overpriced flooded tailgate spots is not big time. Horrible merchandise that goes against your branding efforts is not big time. Letting your field fade to pink is not big time. Letting one of your 2,000 donors walk away without a phone call to see what’s up is not big time. The lack of care and pride our admins show in their jobs is not big time.
I’m not making ANY excuses. I’ll be there regardless. I’ll be damned though if I’m gonna sit by and watch people lie and say this university is doing everything it can. You want people to believe you’re big time: wake up and act like it. Have a little pride.
Every word of this is sad, but true ! What's scary is there are more things to add to the list as we all know

Then why is (or has) next to nothing has been done?
Great question. Ask the Martin Hall guys, I have no clue? After talking with ULvictory from the RR podcast we both agree they are lazy and comfortable.

You’re right about previous administrations. However, many of those same people complaining said they would start going to games if we win. Well, we won and they still didn’t show up but are still complaining because it’s too “expensive” or “lines are too long”. Those same people don’t complain while going to games at other schools and dealing with the same issues.

He basically responded for me with that work of art of a post. LOL.

Good post. Wraps up nicely the poor job being done by the Athletic Dept. and the University as a whole.
