You are by far the most optimistic one on the board!! Best part is when you clarify it by stating you are newer here than most of us! Very self-aware!! It's Groundhog Day every single year with this football program.I don’t take things personally anyways. We’re all good here. I’ll continue to annoy y’all with my optimism 😂
Same here.... I went to first two home games. So much room for improvement all around, not just on the field.I want so hard to be optimistic. I just can't find it after 16 out of 18 years being virtually the same thing. Fool me once....? What is it after over a dozen? Beyond idiocy? I'm pretty sure one of the greatest minds of the modern era had it pegged...

Maybe instead they can name a restroom for him instead.We all know when he does retire he will be in the HOF right off the bat which honestly is quite sad in my book.
Regardless of results and issues with Stock, CM, and McP, you have got to give Lee and Hans and their team credit. $22.8m raised. Wow. Proud to have my name part of it.Lee DeLeon talks about the build blue campaign here in this longer you tube, about the 17:30 mark is where his time starts...
That scoop and score had me embracing my pessimistic side. I got up and told the lady we needed to leave. She told me we were staying till the end and I got my hopes up when they started driving down the field. Definitely said some choice words on the way to my truck. Ruined my night for sure.
so they are going to build a quality inn before the IPF? that is ass backwardsMan.

For those that didn't listen, SAPC $66m is fully funded through student fees, donations, and state dollars, and funds are now being raised for Murphy renovations. Hotel in development phase and will be in RV lot or across street.
Idk what phase the hotel is in. But Lee said it is just now in the development committee stage. Still several years away.so they are going to build a quality inn before the IPF? that is ass backwards

It starts and ends with 7-woodImagine if we'd actually have an athletic program with a pulse to sell alongside it.
That why this is so disheartening. The potential is there. It's so obvious. Why can't anyone see the problem in the football program?!?!?!
I was there too. Fair comment... I totally get it... Our apathy is all we have to show our discontent, but no one is listening.Saturday night pretty much did it for me. I went to the game and walked away just whatever. I no longer really care what they decide to do about anything. We all see the GLARING issues of this program from top to bottom and they simply do not care. That's why I laughed at the gameday experience improvement ideas because that's putting lipstick on a pig. There is no fixing this at this point. The leadership ain't changing so there's no point. I'll root for the team and the kids but I probably won't ever go back to see a game unless there is a reason to and with this product that I watched, I ain't holding my breath.
100% on this. It is what makes the apathy set in, that we know we can do better.Imagine if we'd actually have an athletic program with a pulse to sell alongside it.

Last season did this for me. I still go to a game or 2 each season, but only because I live 2 miles from the stadium. I just do not care any more. I used to live and die with each Blue Raider win/loss, would be tailgating at 8:30 AM for a 6:00 PM game, would sit through piss poor weather to be at the game in person. Not any more. I have games on the TV in the comfort of my home and the Blue Raiders on my phone when they are on ESPN+. So tired of every season being so predictable. Same mistakes on the field, same weaknesses noted, same excuses after losses, no excitement or enthusiasm from the coaching staff showing a real desire to win. I've said it before on here but the apathy expressed by the die hards on this board (myself included) is SO much worse than being angry. When you are angry, it shows you still care.Saturday night pretty much did it for me. I went to the game and walked away just whatever. I no longer really care what they decide to do about anything.

Murray was my first in years, so I went to the CSU game. I reminded me why I stopped coming and donating.Last season did this for me.

Fire Massaro, McPhee, and Stockstill & the BRAA gets a renewed membership the same day.I just hope y’all die hards come back full steam ahead when we finally get a new coach.
They can't manage an athletic department much less a hotel.so they are going to build a quality inn before the IPF? that is ass backwards

I tried it again with the same staff, same results. There is no reason this university should not have won a single conference title outright.I just hope y’all die hards come back full steam ahead when we finally get a new coach.
I'm more worried we stick with a local independent and have a second Jackson Motel. Kinda like having a powerful radio station available that reaches thousands yet we choose the local one that can't reach from the university to my driveway 7 miles away.I am curious, about the brand of hotel we are putting in. They may have announced and I missed it.
Most universities go with a Marriott brand, Hilton brand, Holiday Inn or a boutique style University Inn and Convention center. It would not surprise me at all if we signed a deal with Quality Inn or another Choice Hotel, which are routinely rated the worst hotel chain. Hopefully we got this right.
That is the process they are in right now. I would hope it is Marriott or Hilton. Period. end of story.I am curious, about the brand of hotel we are putting in. They may have announced and I missed it.

Mrs Stockstill is that you? To answer your question the fan base has been run off by the people who have destroyed any semblance of legitimacy to this university and its athletics program. through incompetence, ignorance, arrogance, complacency, and paternalism. They have left us no choice but to leave. That’s why I said in another post it’s a travesty and it’s sad what has become of us.On another side note….where in the world does WKU get their money to have such an amazing campus, facilities, and fan engagement? It’s like a P5 atmosphere! MTSU is late to the game keeping up. The complete oversight is unbelievable. Why? The campus hasn’t changed much since the 90s. That goes to the top decision makers. This football team has some incredible pieces that need to be utilized more, win some games & build this program up. Watching every game it is very possible we could be sitting 4-1 right now. Should have & could have won Mizzou, CSU, & WKU games. Let’s hope as a staff & with hopefully some influential players this team can turn it around. To MTSU fans I beg…do not give up on this team. If you have, then please go find something else to complain about because this does nothing to promote what you claim to love! I get it. It is frustrating but supporting these players may give you what you yearn for in the end. Not supporting them is just going to sabotage the program more which is counterproductive and will not get the desired outcome. Either you are for the team or against them. Your choice! Where are the True Blue fans?
