northernraider Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Is there still a Gameday Committee because the atmosphere inside and outside seems rather down. I know winning cures all and labor day, but still was pathetic imo until UND started to finally pull ahead. Second note: First sitting on the oppenents sideline and that concourse could use a little spit job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need a full two or three sections (students section) dedicated to general seating. Too many people are separated from tailgate to game. Keep them together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There needs to be more season ticket holders and general admission seating from the 40 to 40 yard line on the opponent side. Means moving the student section down from the 50 to the 30. Also, the effort towards gameday experience, just like the online roster, has faltered of late. It’s been sad to see under Chaves. Needs a kick in the ass, you could say. Send plenty of emails and also let your donations (or lack thereof) do the talking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plug was pulled. The new Game Day Committee should be summed up in one word. J-O-B, as in folks need to do their frickin job or get fired. But in a liberal weenie atmosphere like most Universities, no one will be held accountable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
