Who's saying a large amount of blue chippers and we all know that the basketball team does so why not the football team?  I just want Marrone to be able to recruit a decent amount of kids he has targeted and really wants for this program, not every one but a decent amount and especially kids from NY.  I think the fans play a big part in that and can always help.

The past is the past and I'd like to see the crowd learn from that.  Everyone could see that Jake and P were on cruise control and Shaws comments did not help at all.  Then we were g-robbed and it hit rock bottom.  I really don't think it's asking for the world to have at least 45K people at every game and too many just put up excuses why they don't go.  SU can not play 12 AQ teams each year and flourish but yet when they play a Maine or RI people complain that it's not an attractive enough team to watch and even when an ECU or Toledo are on the schedule the names just don't bring the fans like the Oklahoma or Tennessee's would but ask anyone that knows football and they'll tell you those ECU and Toledo teams are pretty tough teams.

I understand people don't want to go for whatever reason and it may just be me but don't complain when SU just misses with top recruits or losses at home if you're not there giving them the support they deserve.   You just can't have it both ways, one helps the other.
