We’ve got a coach that takes ownership and responsibility, it’s been a long time.  He will get things rolling.

Attendance listed at 9819.  While not a sellout, it's the largest crowd of the season and 16th largest ever at Chaifetz.

Sounds like Robbie picked a great time to look like an NAIA player

Memories of Ford saying "It's 8 on 5!"

Need to let a little air out of them, so they get a little more action. 

I thought they created a line to the basket, kinda like looking down

a tunnel. Acting like a funnel to the basket. need to move both a couple of feet to one side or the other.

Whoever runs those things needs to turn them on and off while guys are at the line…once their up they’re not distracting at all.

I like it.  Have them up and then deflate them right as he's looking at the rim to take his shot.

Deflate and reinflate randomly and rapidly, that’s the ticket

Or alternate between inflating one while deflating the other.

Perhaps I am showing my nerdiness here, but what in blazes was the significance of the 5-6 guys coming out in those inflatable suits during the Dayton game.  I kept waiting for something to happen, but pfft!!

Every year they dress up in some type of costume at the blizzard. Can't recall past themes but it is always interesting.

Adding to what others have said: They usually make an appearance at the first time out.  I think one year they were in giant chicken suits. Maybe the Sta-Puft marshmallow man once. Usually a white outfit for the Blizzard.

 I arrived late last night.  Parked in Weber so had to access the stands at court level.  Entered  just as Kobe scored the 3.  The resultant wave of sound at court level was unbelievable.  I’m a relatively large guy (6’2” 210) but my date is only 5’2” 110. 

Humble brag..
