But I’m old and may have forgot. If you could show me the others I’d appreciate it. Fine, play semantics on a post I typed up at 6am. You ARE extrapolating reasonable concern into comparisons with Dwayne Polk. Nobody....I repeat NOBODY is comparing him to Dwayne Polk. You're creating a level of criticism of Yuri that simply isn't there. Is that better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgstl Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Surprised to see the crowd attendance was 200 less than Murray state, for sure felt and looked like more to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drkelsey55 Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I believe the low attendance may be a result of the horrible traffic and parking for the games. Also the decision to accept only credit cards for concessions has resulted in fewer options No beer sellers in the concourse. Resulting in fans late to their seats to start the game and at the end of half time. JMHO \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I just don't really care, because I'm gonna go regardless, so I don't see where the problems are. Could you elaborate where the issues lie? Again, I'm not saying anyone is wrong I just have a blind spot for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you elaborate where the issues lie? Again, I'm not saying anyone is wrong I just have a blind spot for this. FWIW the folks I've talked to are 70+ so I see their issue more. Game 1 - I stood in the area around the bridge for about 7 or 8 minutes without taking a step. It was incredibly jammed up. Wasn't much of an issue because A I'm young, B it was still like 50's outside and not the 20s it will be soon. Game 2 - walking wasn't as bad in that area, 2-3 minutes of standings/barely moving. Worst part, and I was legit pissed, took me 24 minutes to get out of my parking spot on the roof. about 26-27 minutes total to exit the garage. No one was moving.

I parked on the roof for game one and it was the same. What is the difference between this year and past years? Surely the half of the VIP lot that is closed isn't making that much of a difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They converted it to a baseball field I believe. I think this has a lot to do with the problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would rattle around then roll out. He wasn’t missing by much. The TOs I’d need to relook at. I think at least a few of them were catchable balls that other players muffed. Regardless he is the straw that stirs the drink. You're correct on the shots. I rewatched the entire game last night - a couple of turnovers were moreso the fault of the receiver. Tough to blame a QB for an interception when he hits an open receiver in the hands. One of those turnovers was a bad call on a ball that went out of bounds. 5 turnovers, sure, but it's deeper than that and anyone who isn't looking for justification to crucify Yuri (the best PG in the country) sees that.

If he's going to consistently be the worst poster on the board (so bad it feels no less than intentional) he is not above facing the repercussions for it. What if our players read the board? Or their parents? God forbid recruits read it. They deserve to know that we don't think the way he does and that we in fact stand up for them against his terrible opinions.

You're not wrong but I'll admit, that one person sure knows how to get under my skin. Gotta be better about not taking the bait... There's just so much fu**ing bait. If this team were as consistent as his criticisms of it we'd already have been crowned the 2022-23 national champs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box and Won Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Was this a buy game, or do we go visit YOU PEOPLE IN THE EVANSVILLE AREA next year? If we do, that's a super-easy road trip. JMM28 likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
