I hope that the fans treat the WF game

as a Thank You and a Good-Bye to JB. Would love to have presumptuous signs "Thanks for the memories, coach" "JB #1 in wins." "Best of luck, coach" No boos. Just adulation and thankfulness.

Understand what you are saying and agree 1000%. However if that is what the University, Athletic Department, Baseketball Program, JAB and Family are looking for they are going to have to make an announcement of what the plan is...

But what if Jim isn’t expecting it to be his last home game lol.

We won't be hosting any NIT games this season, even if we get in.

That would hilarious if fans collectively decide it’s his last game despite no indication from JB, SU or the media.

Count me in.

Social media could make it happen. The fan base could create momentum. Make it seem a fait accompli.

If he doesn’t announce anything then that would be both bizarre and classless.

 

[Symphony Steve]

If he doesn’t announce anything then that would be both bizarre and classless.

...and necessary.

...and necessary.

Why? Because Jim and John *don’t* know the fanbase is upset?

You guys are weird.

Really hate to say this but some might say that JB and Wildhach are classless with the lack of respect they are treating the program.

Not looking good on that front...

No. Because passive acceptance is no longer enough. Nothing weird about that.

Whether or not JB and Wildhack are aware is not the issue. Fans can try to create an action-forcing mechanism, which is what this would be. I think some sort of a pubilc mutiny on the part of the fans might be our best chance to force that change.

thats something he could have had but did not want

You might have thought that a 20 year low in attendance, and widespread scorn in the national media would have been enough to institute change without us having to resort to pitchforks.

You should have said, “Goodbye, farewell, and amen.” Missed opportunity.

Stop trying to make Gus happen.

That’s cold blooded
But I like it

Stop trying to make Gus happen.

Stop fighting the inevitable and embrace Gus.

Stop trying to make Gus happen.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Stop trying to make Gus happen.

He already has the tattoo.

Exactly. As if this thread wasn't bizarre enough.

The WF game should not be turned into a "Retire JB" sideshow-
I'm going to the game to honor the 2003 champs and GMac/Hak jersey retirements.
The day should focus on and be remembered for that.

JAB would never want it to be about him. He wants it to be about Jesse, Joe and Symir, and about Hak, GMac and the 2003 championship team. Nothing else should matter or get in the way.

My post was in regard to the suggestion for fans to bring signs and act like JB is leaving/announced his retirement.
