billikenfan05 Posted November 29, 2017 Author Share Posted November 29, 2017 Somebody needs to call the companies that own the all inclusive seats and find out why nobody ever uses them. It’s embarassing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianstl Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 The team just lost to Detroit and people on campus think players on the team might be sexual predators. I can’t believe students didn’t show up to cheer them on. Westy03 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierPal Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 The new Star Wars movie debuts mid December. This is actually good timing. Look for some free ticket give-always? slufan13 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could get the band involved to play the score from the movie. The band could play the dark side theme before the away team is announced Have giveaways where you can try to win free tickets to see the movie or a Star Wars prize pack. The shirt is neat it really is but the “theme night” feels half a$$3d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no clue though. We do have Imperial March in the band's repertoire, and I believe it will be making an appearance that night. Other than that, we currently do not have any other Star Wars music. Besides, in order to do Star Wars music justice, you HAVE to have a full orchestra. It would be sacrilege to John Williams himself if you didn't! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AD leaves a lot to be desired. I have no idea what you do outside of the board, so if you already do what I'm suggesting below, then kudos. Everyone on the board who complains about the AD (including 05) - Complaining on this board is easy and you may get others to commiserate with you regarding the failings of the AD. However, it does absolutely nothing to fix any perceived/actual problems. I would advise reaching out to the athletics office with constructive criticism. Constructive meaning rather than just saying, "your photoshops suck" you'd say "I noticed some issues with this graphic. Here they are... Here is how it can be done better." (huge caveat regarding Situation 2.0 I'm highly doubtful that any of us are objective enough or know enough to offer anything constructive there) Back to 05 - sometimes it just seems like you have a bone to pick with the AD, so you nitpick everything they do. It is often deserved, but if you're not offering suggestions directly to them, then what's the point? thetorch likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
