Boycott SMU Football Until Bennett Resigns

Postby Billy Joe » Tue Sep 18, 2007 10:27 am

It is time to boycott SMU football until Bennett resigns!!!! He needs to step down immediately!!!!! While many SMU students, alumni, and football fans in the area have already done this, the rest of us need to show our disgust for this joke of a program and quit attending games!!!! Hey Orsini, rethinking your decision to bring Bennett back?

While I like your sentiment, it isn't fair to the players or their families. I bleed Red and Blue each week until we are behind 21-0 and they take the first TV timeout. Then I rant on ponyfans!

Bottom line PB's tenure is over and hopefully SMU will Pony UP! The question is will You?

Go Mustangs!!!!!!!!!!

I hope he's at least rethinking his decision to charge my @ss $200 to sit with a bunch of Redneck Raider fans in the home section. Before the season started, I had the UTEP game penciled in; after Tech, I had doubts I would make it due to the experience; now, I'm going fishing.

I have similarly opted out of my trip to Southern Miss. In fact, if someone wants/needs two tickets, let me know.

If you really want to make a change start raising money. If you can come to the school with enough cash to have them do what you want then they might actually be able to do it. Not showing up just makes it harder for the school to raise the cash to make any changes.

From my perspective now is not the time to boycott or wear bags. Support the team. You can hate Bennett, you can love Bennett, you can boo Bennett, you can cheer Bennett, but if you have ever played the game you may know what it is like to have the fan base abandon you. I sure do, and it is not good.

I will be there whenever I am able and I will cheer for my team and hope that the powers that be will some day figure out how to right the ship and sail the course. It has been a long time with no results, but if and when it happens, I will be pleasantly surprised. If not, I will die unhappy with my team but loyal with my support.

That's idiotic! We are 3 games into the season! Granted, I don't have much faith that we'll win too many of the remaining games, but I will be at every remaining home game. I hate you people that come on here almost every year saying that you're going to boycott SMU football until Bennett is gone. It's ridiculous! A team isn't going to fire a coach and a coach isn't going to throw in the towell this early in the season. All that you're going to do by boycotting is hurt the school that you supposedly care about and the players.
