But I do agree the black thing could lead to them getting some hate bc students think they are from d8 so just yet another reason they should wear red. We at dorm 8 would not like the hate we "deserve" to be sent to other people. We are very selfish. (Sarcasim included in this post)

I admit it is derivative of Sparty from Michigan State. My wife is from East Lansing and I used to visit the Breslin Center and visit with coach Tom Crean and Tom Izzo back in the day so I feel a slight kinship to that program. My idea for this group's name is also derivative of their environment. They have the Izzone in the Breslin Center. How about:1. very BEEJ style post. nice going.

boobox wrote:Hey guys whats going on me and another guy on my dorm run the boo box and want to only support the guys on the basketball team. We aren't trying to be selfish and have any attention on us we just want to be able stand out from the rest of the student body so they know who to look at and who to follow when it comes to chants and when it comes to things that we do such as the newspapers, and the throwing of the shredded paper, etc... Any way im open to suggestions and comments but I just dont want people to come at me hostile and rude because in the end out intentions for the boo box are purely for the players we are from the dorm that the basketball players live on and want to support them and get all of LU out to be loud because as we all know the 6th man is sometimes the reason games get won.There seems to be a large amount of run-on sentences in the paragraph...
jbock13 wrote:Jbock I don't know if you were confused by my post or what but the boo box (all the guys in black) are not associated at all with us at dorm 8. People have asked me why us dorm 8 guys don't wear black to the game and I always say that draws attention to us and not the team. And the team should always have the attention at the games.skywalker5291 wrote:I watched it on TV and if it weren't for the shirts I couldn't even tell you all were there.FlamesBeBallin wrote:All the students affiliate them with Dorm 8 because of the black t-shirts, so naturally everyone can't stand them.By the way im from dorm 8 and if it were not for us tonight the place would have been silent half the time.

skywalker5291 wrote:I'm glad they're into the games and all, I just don't get the name and the black shirts. I mean, do 100 people in black shirts really "scare" the opposition. Maybe at the NAIA level...jbock13 wrote:Yeah skywalker I guess I did get it confused. My bad.Its coolI hope boobox actually reads this but i have a feeling he wont come back to read this.
SCAR wrote: How about:Doesn't translate to other sports. I don't like naming a student section after a person who could be gone at any time. We're supporters of the school, not just the coach. Whatever we name a fan section should be able to translate to all sports.
