"Fans" booing our own team

I wonder if he'll make the connection that some of the football fans are also basketball fans.
This exactly. At the end of the first half people were booing, I told my brother next to me that this is more embarrassing than us being down 28 at half. You are not helping when you boo our own team, if anything you are discouraging the team. In addition you make our fanbase look like ******. Leave the booing to eastern Iowa. We are classier than that at ISU.
Many years ago I tried to take some old-school posters to task for bagging so hard on Greg McDermott. I thought that they were crossing the line and being "disloyal." I worried about how the players would respond to seeing all that negative crap out there. They told me that it was our duty as fans to let the coaches (and administration) know that we see what is happening.
We ended up with Fred Hoiberg...

I wish I could definitively say we are classier. Unfortunately, many are content sinking to the level of the tavern Hawks, many of them tavern Cyclones perhaps?
Nope, we are one step above them. I don't see any reason why we can't be two or three steps above them, but I don't make those decisions.
No, thats giving up. You had a chance to score twice before Baylor touched the ball again...a chance to make it 35-21 before Baylor touched the ball again. He chose to sit on the ball and go to half.
Come on guys stop being so mean. Sit in the stands w your ties straight and wave your pennants, unless you're a former coach or player of. Course.
am i allowed to golf clap after good plays or do I not have enough credentials to do that?

Please post your resume in your profile page, and the "CF council on who can clap and boo and stuff" will render a judgement forthwith.
Are you ******* serious? You are already down by 28 points. You have 2 players at WR that are 3-4 inches taller than any DB they can put out there. Run the clock down to 2 seconds and launch it into the end zone. Even that would have been better than mailing it in before half.
I read the words in your post but I still have to ask: Do you truly honestly believe that Rhoads had actually given up?
He's gotten conservative several times and been burn, but he did not actually give up on the team winning the game, which is certainly what people imply when they say he gave up.
