Some Thoughts on a Very Disappointing Night

[ShotgunDawg]

Here are some quick thoughts:

1. It shouldn't surprise anyone with what happened in our basketball game. The basketball program has too many clowns in it & has for sometime. It's extremely obvious that we have to recruit tougher kids. Hopefully Perry & Woodard are that. The program has lacked tough leadership for a decade.

2. Don't look to much into the baseball loss tonight. Auburn had a good bit go there way to win that one. It'll be good to see how this team handles adversity. Tough loss tonight but not a big deal in the long run. Unlike our basketball program, the baseball program has tough kids & will respond positively.

3. Lastly, here is picture of behind home plate tonight in the 5th inning well before the Womens' Basketball game started.



I am just failing to understand why these seats are always empty.

Who are the people that own these seats?
Why do they choose to never show up for baseball games?
Why would people spend money on these baseball seats & never come to games?

We are considered one of the top 3 most passionate baseball fan bases in the country, yet this issue continues to make us look like shit.
Can you imagine turning on an Alabama football game & seeing blocks of empty seats on the 50 yard line?
Can you imagine turning on a Duke game & seeing empty lower seats at Cameron?

Why is this ok? If these people just want to spend money, then do everyone a favor & just make a donation & let others that actually attend baseball games sit in those seats. It's a problem that has existed far too long, cheapens our baseball program, & is apparently well beyond the mental capacity of our athletic department to fix. It look absolutely awful on TV.
