Re: Cal Poly

So put up a MINORS, DRINK HERE! sign? Any liability to the University in doing that?

I guess that's basically what the Backyard was to minors the last several years. That's also what led to the couple of mob messes we had last year.

Not sure what the answer is, but I don't think designating an area for minors to come drink flies. If underage students won't come to games unless they can consume in public before the game, then so be it.

You're right. Just shut down the student tailgate. And get rid of the student section too while we're at it. Seems like a solid strategy. Let's get out the breathalyzers like nidaros wants to as well and hit everybody in the tailgating lots. Sounds like a fun time to me.

Re: Cal Poly

The handling of the student tailgate has been a big disappointment. I feel the athletic department needs to hire independent security and not rely on UPD. If someone gets out of hand to the point where law enforcement is needed, the security company can then remove the individual and turn them over to UPD. Killing the student tailgate, and hurting student attendance will have detrimental effects in later years. The current students can be future season ticket holders, but not if they don't associate the games with having great times with friends. At this point it is probably too late for this season.

Re: Cal Poly

I hope Lujan gets more reps with the first-team offense. AND, #12, Kanin Nelson of Mitchell, the next-in-line QB, has to be ready to go too. Teams are going to quickly catch on to frequent blitzes resulting in a significant risk to Christion's ankle. Based on the CalPoly game and the two or three times Christion went to the sidelines, his ankle is apparently being held together by tape. He'd be limping badly, have the old tape removed and his right ankle re-taped and he'd seem good to go (although I do not recall any plays in which he was the designated runner in the second half). Lujan is the best backup QB in the Valley but I thought his timing wasn't quite as good as we've seen in the past...more reps needed in practice?

Re: Cal Poly

Best of luck to the Jacks the rest of the season. Great program and great fans.

Congrats on the win.

Stangs came in and straight up beat us.
-also, I've said many times I love watching the option run well. (Except against the Rabbits).
Good Luck to Cal Poly the rest of the year.

Re: Cal Poly

That was a tough loss. Jacks have a real uphill battle to get back to the playoffs. All the Valley teams losing to the Big Sky doesn't help either.

Re: Cal Poly

Students leaving at halftime has been happening for years, especially at night games. Not a new thing.

Maybe we need to bring back after game student dances at the Union. That way in order to take in the dance, students would have to suffer through the second half.

WTF? Who will pay for the independent security? Student fees maybe?

I realize that. More obvious in new stadium. Just don't feel they have a lot to bitch about if game doesn't mean more than that.

Re: Cal Poly

Biggest disappointment outside of our defense was the mass of students who left a halftime Why even come if you can't enjoy a competitive shootout like last night. I heard students are frustrated over being harassed in tailgate areas. Sounds like an excuse not to show up.

The student tailgate lot was completely empty so I think some of their frustration is probably warranted.

Re: Cal Poly

Yeah, guess I should have included that

In other news for the game, this video got me pretty excited for the game

Zenner was obviously a lot of fun to watch, but this offense has a chance to be very special. It's already very good and very entertaining, but consider the fact that the main pieces are going to be here again next year. I hope tomorrow we see the defense match the offense and have this team put a complete game together and be in top form for MVFC play to start.

Re: Cal Poly

I would assume this means that Stig spent time with the defense, not a bad idea.
