I'm ebarassed for our program and loathe the lack of loyalty we are showing to the seniors who put this program on the map...it's reprehensible.

If believe if we wold have appealed that would have slowed the thought of transferring because there would have been a chance they could play on in the NCAA tournament.

Major hints have been dropped on the board for a week now, so not sure if anyone can be surprised by this.
I think all of us with Moody tix are obligated to show up and support this team. I do fear Moody regressing this season back to pre-renovation mood.

this is an opportunity for our Moody Maniacs to be louder, more supportive of our team (particularly the seniors) and to create a more hostile environment than ever. Attend this year's games with a chip on your shoulder and hope the team plays that same way

Classy to mention ticket prices at this time.

Can we give it up on complaining about ticket prices? It's not that expensive and the value is pretty awesome. Plus, the money goes to supporting athletics, which I think we all care about.

not everything in life can be a clinical calculation. Because the rules are new i think there is alot of value in making the NCAA affirm its decision, particularly amid the Louisville investigation. Even if the legal chances were only 10-20% of success, I personally would do it for all the qualitative factors including booster pride and simple fairness/respect to the seniors. oh well, guess its over. Why bother appealing the other stuff is my view.

instead of complaining about ticket prices, I would hope our fans will show up in droves this season and cheer with a chip on their shoulders. Make Moody a more hostile environment than ever for our visitors...and impress recruits in the process

I'll be there. This does nothing to change how fun the games are. People need to quit bit*hing and let's support the team.

People can voice their disagreement with things and still go to games.

official response is that Coach Brown agrees with this decision; wonder how he explained it to his seniors?

This is my guess, too. Contain as much damage to this year and move forward.
