@DanR Yes, we were there a couple of hours early. We saw everything. Good and bad.
I know it’s been a long time since our football team has been taken seriously, but honestly, I was surprised at how unenthusiastic the whole town seemed. I remember driving through Pittsburg, Ks a couple of times, and it’s like WOW - these folks are behind their team. Businesses, residences, everybody’s flying flags and banners, and wearing “the colors”.
Were you at the game? I think the thing that got me the most was how …meh… the crowd was when they introduced the players. The KU Players!! Literally nobody cheered. I started to clap and looked around and thought “whoa, what kind of weird no cheer tradition is this?”. You don’t see that in AFH.
Anyway, I hope they get it figured out soon. It looks to be another long, horrid Big 12 season from what I’ve seen so far.
