When a team gets railroaded by an average opponent most fans get upset with the coach. The intros today show us how the average fan feels about Wojo. For those that want the guy to retire here, today was a clear sign of how the majority of fans feel.  Take note.
Railroaded? You mean steamrolled ?
To your point.... From all reports a small chorus of boos were directed at Wojo at the beginning of the game and that now constitutes the opinion of the average fan and the majority of fans. Of course the cheers by the whole crowd at the end of the game are not interpreted as a sign of support for Wojo. Hmmmmm

Yeah, but Wojo has to be the first MU coach to be booed at home, ever.  Think about that for a second.

Wasn't Al booed after one of the losses down the stretch in 1977? I thought that was at least an urban legend, and I recently read a reprint of a November 1977 SI article in which he talked about being booed.

But sure, Wojo being booed by a few dozen or few hundred mopes is "proof" that a majority of fans want him fired. I guess him being cheered when he was introduced before the Central Arkansas game -- with not a single boo to be heard -- was "proof" that a majority of fans want him to receive a 10-year, $100 million contract extension. I wonder what Tuesday's pregame will "prove."

When you have to tell an outright lie to try to make your main point, it shows how little validity that point has. And it speaks to the reliability of the person making it.

I didn't hear any booing. Maybe you could if you were close to where those assclowns were sitting...

I was, however, sitting not too far away from a guy who was screaming at individual players. Picture our most hateful game thread participants shouting their posts at full volume.

Are the ushers allowed to boot someone like that, or at least tell them to take it down a notch?
Have some patience, FFS.

Booing the home team usually exposes the worst people, so it can be helpful in that regard

False.

How many false things are you going to say this week.  You are so far out your element here it is comically sad.

I don’t mind taking guys like Henry either, but that’s a totally different scenario.  He can blow his knee out, needs to stay four years and graduate.  Some of the guys in question COULD NOT GRADUATE PERIOD.

Aaron Hutchins and DWade say hi. Glad you didn't block them too in your job in the AD.

Sigh.

Both of them were capable of graduating and one has.  At issue are players we recruited that mathematically COULD NOT graduate...no possible scenario.  Wade and Hutch don’t fit that bill.

Try again.

It’s a free country, sure, but I don’t get the “booing thing” period. Our guys, their guys, the refs - IMO it speaks volumes about the one doing the booing and zero about those being booed.

Bullsh*t.  Do you honestly believe this?  Of course they could graduate if given the time and if they put in the effort.  It is never possible for someone "mathematically" not to be able to graduate.

Sigh...20 years to judge?

Hutch, Wade, Lazar, etc. NEVER would be admitted to MU today...and shouldn't have been back then....and on and on and on.

Not even close. As a matter of fact, I think that all the coaches have been booed at home during their tenure.

Alcohol is often a factor, lord knows I’ve been a terrible person to be around at a sporting event after being over served.

Booing the refs is interesting.  Does it help?  I’d have to search but studies show refs “favor” the home team more often than not.  Does booing then intimidate them or embolden them?
