i'm doing it...going rogue!!! 11-0 No, I do not actually believe we are going 11-0 but you have to approach each game like you want to win it. (You play to win the game...) We expect the players and coaches to do so. I'm not a fan of predicting L's. Regardless, we need to make the playoffs otherwise a shake up needs to happen.

Yes!! My guess would be AU or Howard would be the host or maybe G-town will play their smaller non-conference games at the new arena and not Cap One. Or WILDCARD we do a neutral site game with JMU or GMU..try to get both schools to get the DC alumni out. (one can dream...maybe one day the alumni department will give a shit about building up the DC alumni community and not treating it like an extension of all the Baltimore events)

ummm okay? kind of random thread to start. yeah i think we all want to have more people come to football (and basketball) games and i agree most of the short coming fall on the administration and their lack of ability to build a powerful athletics and education brand. but for a school of our size the goal should be to fix those issues not downgrade to D3. I personally HATE that we try to only brand ourselves as Baltimore's school. The focus should be beyond Baltimore and Maryland.

Yes! I hated Deb during my time at Towson and that was almost 10 years ago. She has single handily killed tailgating for students. Other than Deb here is my list: Make a NCAA bball run or return to FCS championship game - winning solves all problem Better football and basketball scheduling. Play local power 5 teams more often. Improve marketing of improved scheduling ^ people need to know about above Improved perks for fundraising... I donate at least $200 each year and have football tickets + pakring and all I get is a Tiger Club sticker. How about a tshirt or % off in the team store/concessions. (take notes from the Caps, I'm a Caps season ticket holder and have gotten boat loads of stuff over the year) Sell booze in the seats

i'm okay with this. much better than the recent years. thinking about going to the Bahamas tournament.

I think I said this on the FB post but wooooooooooooooooooooooo! Metroing to the games for me!! As someone that owns a home in NE DC (Brookland) the city is transitioning fast but that area (Congress Heights) still has a LOOOOOONG was to go. Set up some shuttles to official tournament hotels in Navy Yard,Waterfront or Downtown and people will be fine. If an NBA team can practice there, a NBA G League team and WNBA can play there security will no be an issues around the facility and game times. I'm totally okay playing our conference tournament in the HQ of an NBA team, as much of a joke as the Wiz are.

Gotta have hope at some point we get our shit together?....right?.....right? one has to dream big. But seriously as someone that works in advertising the current start of our self promotion is just sad.

Anyone has any insights into the deal? Hopefully we are expanding the gear for sale and the local marketing partnership. Does UA have a press release or are we that much of an after thought to them? I was kinda hoping we would have shocked the local community and gone with adidas. adidas has some cool stuff coming out right now with the retro trefoil logo.

Lame! this is why we are never going to make the tournament again. We can never seem to schedule more than one good OOC opponent each year and never at home.

We had some rebuilding after last year's run but I'm okay with the progress made. Now time to keep building.

Jammer needs to go for any changes of the coaching staff to matter.

Not getting an agent so still hope but not a good look. my guess is he is trying to be get a scouting report from the NBA then graduate quickly to be a grad transfer at a power 5.

+1

tunit!! the free wings! we had something going there for a bit with student leadership, then athletics and student affairs (aka Deb Moriarty, the fun police) killed it with that stupid docs army thing.

Amazing. Funny all around! I love that Towerlight kid called out the big two sports for not winning. Totally true and something I joke about all the time at work with coworkers from power 5 schools (duke, wake, umd, florida, az state, uva, va tech) jmu and mason. But like many times with amateur journalism he lacks facts when he is trying to call out the entire athletics department. Going to the final four was awesome for MLAX, clearly they are head and shoulders above the other sports as our number 3 behind only football and MBB on our give a crap factor. I also love that TL gave a sh*t to comment back same with the intern...go intern...someone hire that kid. We need more passion coming out of that department. TuTigers2012 questions the marketing and promotions department and I totally agree. As someone how makes a living in Marketing and Advertising it's pretty laughable. I believe TL was hired for fundraising and from what I can tell he does okay at that but for Marketing we are just plain boring. TL is too cookie cutter and low energy. We can all laugh now at MW for mismanaging the department long term but the guy could sell. That football playoff game atmosphere vs lehigh was amazing. (I saw people scaling tickets! scaling at towson!!) Crushed any atmosphere during the 13 finals run and I went to dallas for the game. Also if anyone remembers the caazone days I've had my issues with both the towerlight (getting misquoted over tailgating) and the athletic department (fire gordy shirts) so I'm super amused all around since I don't have a strong option either way. Both are right and wrong in some ways. Downside of the internet - everyone gets an option to share...including us
