Why is there only 1 ticket window??

Where is the rest of the band?? Why isn't the whole band at the game. That would help with attendance make it look more full .

What about the football players?? Does Walden not go to the games anymore?? Was it just a one thing?? But yeah the crowd was pretty much boring. The crowd seems like a old crowd. Where is all the young people??

Playing video games and making Tik Tok videos.

Scotty needs to be careful here and make sure he gets the right guy at QB. It will likely make or break his opportunity..

Don't expect a big change in defensive rebounding. Golding's defense dictates that. Also blocking out is no longer a focus in basketball.

Not having a reliable big to start or come off the bench has been a slow burn. Other than Kalu, there are 4 other guys on this team that have been unable to step into that role for various reasons. It's a huge missing piece and all based on Golding's poor recruiting/planning for this moment.

Bynum not playing more is becoming sort of the next Jones like conundrum.

Sorry man, tried to talk about in person tickets last time, but questions went unanswered or discussed. Go complain to Senter.

Now the fans need to fill up the don … we are 9-3…. Played really well against a tough Louisville team … no excuses

Sell out the Don for NAIA Northern New Mexico, who is 4-16! Athletics is so important up there, they haven’t posted the outcome of their game on Friday. Come see Baylor Hebb and Antwan Holmes play significant minutes against some scrubs!

Now the fans need to fill up the don … we are 9-3…. Played really well against a tough Louisville team … no excuses

This could be a big get … do we have any real chance ?

I’ll take it. Some early losses I didn’t expect, but overall I think this team can compete for a CUSA championship if they can get out of their own way. Terrell still needs to work on his turnovers and good to see him shoot better from the line last night.

Worked out well for Tyler Ebell. I remember a game where Rouse went off and looked unguardable. Unfortunately he was an idiot

Ebell was a 5 star? He did work out. He and Thomas.

idk whats up with Terrell, erratic, can’t control his dribble especially when he drives, just looks uncomfortable. Bynum needs to play more but he needs to keep coming off the bench.

Were they magically into sports in years past when the Don was regularly full?

That was a long time ago. People die. People age. People move. People lose interest, etc. None of those reasons are "pathetic".

Cool! Do you want a cookie?

Why is it pathetic that people aren't into sports? I just don't get why you think it's "pathetic" for somebody who doesn't like sports.

I was at the game.

Good win . I liked how KJ Thomas was getting big minutes at the end of the game. I saw Gooding brought KJ in for defense. That's pretty good for a young player to get those big minutes.

Camper missed a lot of layups. I saw that Terrell yelled at him a lot because he wasn't moving or something. But yeah Bynum needs to be starting . He would probably be avg 20 points if he was starting.

Your negativity is really tiresome

I find unwarranted cheerleading tiresome, but to each their own. I'm always happy when the Miners win, but reserve the right to critique the way they earned that win. I thought that the UCSB win was a good win, beating a solid team on the road. I praised them after the Seattle win, as I thought that was their best home win of the season. I thought that they played with heart and grit against Louisville, and if they could only rebound their defensive boards they win that game.

But calling a win against a (still) winless Jackson State a good win and calling the team "gritty" after almost giving up all of a 22 point lead with less than 5 minutes to go is ridiculous. In this game we were at home, played a great first half after a slow start, and maintained a lead that was in or near double digits for the majority of the game. And we barely held on to win that game. Down the stretch we committed turnovers, allowed way too many offensive rebounds, missed key free throws, and took bad shots. Yale battled back by crashing their offensive boards and playing good defense. Had they hit a shot on that last possession they would have earned a "gritty" victory on the road. We were lucky to escape with a home win.

I know that after we crush Northern New Mexico you're going to consider it a great win. I'm going to yawn and consider it a forgone conclusion, and complain that two games against non-Div1 teams was more than plenty, and that playing a third is ridiculous. Once we beat a good team in conference play I will join you in calling it a good win.

Also, the consistency that Otis brings is big. He's been a good 2 way player all season.

Good win. One thing I'm noticing is that Golding teams can't play with leads. His substitution patterns have a lot to do with this. I'm very proud of Kalu. He is a rare player that has been here all 4 years and is being rewarded with his improvements. Those careless unforced turnovers absolutely needs to be cleaned up. With our inability to rebound every turnover is crucial for this team. PLAY BYNUM! Keep winning and the crowds will come. Go Miners.
