I don't know if any students have painted it or not, but it better be painted for Bruce today.

So much in so little

He’s done so much for this program in so little time. I relly hope he stays.

I'm sure they'll get right on that...

… based on their attendance at the games this year, I am sure we can count on the students.

If I trusted them, I wouldn't have made mention of it.

(As I understand your sarcasm to mean as well.)

I've been working on a post trying to explain the students

I’ll give you a preview, two reasons for poor student attendence this year

-Trickle down effect, poor taste left in mouth from Football season created apathy once the basketball team struggled as well

-Not nearly as many promotions as in recent years. Bruce used to do the cafeteria circuits, hangout in presidential court on gamedays, and I haven’t seen hardly any of that this year, maybe he felt he shouldn’t have to as much. He purchased all the shirts for the Florida game which brought in a big crowd. But there were hardly any big promotions for the SEC games, that accompanied with an inconsistent team explained the empty seats IMO.

I agree with your two preview points

and I look forward to reading your full post.

I'm not on board

I’m in the waters, circling around, humming the Jaws theme.
