Congrats Bobcats. You survived it.

Osage, I'm sorry you feel that way. The point is that many have walked away and many more will until someone decides to right this ship. For many, that's the only way of voicing their displeasure as they're not big donors, just casual fans. Just like my 20 year hiatus before, I'll be watching from afar and hoping for better days. But it's my way of saying enough!

See ya.

He'll get year 3, especially if he makes a change at OC, but the natives are getting restless. We had a real chance at 6 wins this year, and just cannot figure out how to hold a dang lead.

Recruiting is basically the only thing we are good at right now.

Are people losing patience? Look in the seats. Look at the stAte football forum. Long time donors and faithful fans walking away. I took about a 20 year break the last time. I guess I can do it again.

I will say, we have an extremely inpatient fanbase. But much of this problem would have been so much easier if there was better communication between the Athletic Department and fans, instead the impression is our Athletic Admins are basically just out to get a pay check.

New AD hasn't even had a chance to really have an impact, and people are already convinced he'll do nothing because the last group did nothing.

The last few years of Kelly Damphousse/Terry Mohajir/Tom Bowen really just destroyed our fan base from within.

Glad we took stAte's problems to solve our own. Damphousse sure loves his selfies.

Yeah. This leaves me kind of scared for TXST athletics. We already had huge problems from within the ranks and now we hired someone who left their previous school in shambles (athletically at least). I guess we'll see.

Yeah...glad you have him. I assure you given a little time you will be glad when he moves on.

He's amazing with students for sure, but its frustrating as a fan base when your baseball team is losing by 14 runs on its way to its worst season ever and the guy who could help fix the mess is taking selfies with college kids out in right field. Puts a lot of pressure on your AD to be the one to make the moves

But you’re no longer the ASU Indians.
