Student Section — All White Sox fans?

[GGGG]

Take off the blue and gold glasses.

Better those than your fainting couch.

This is nothing new.  Been happening for years.  These are college kids at a basketball game.  Were you guys really all that more mature back in your day?

No.  we were not even close to that mature back in my day. 

I realize the in person experience is much different with kids than on TV but on TV me and my kids didn't hear an FU chant.

[Dr. Blackheart]

First words from Jay Wright after the game was what a great environment for college basketball...

[#UnleashSean]

So I go to marquette games. We chant unnatural carnal knowledge you. I go to Wisconsin games they chant unnatural carnal knowledge you. I go to Creighton games they can't unnatural carnal knowledge you. I go to butler games they chant unnatural carnal knowledge you.

Get over it. All the kids do it. It's not like this is the first time. Lol.

should Creighton change their mascot from the BlueJays to the Eunuchs?

[The Lens]

Cubs fan eh?

Fu*k the cubs.

Brewers fan, actually. 

And I'm not a hater.  I appreciate a school of our size filling up 3,000-4,000 seats with students.  I just feel F U Nova is so unimaginative and frankly undeserved. 

If you're gonna rip the opponent at least put some thought into it. 

[mu_hilltopper]

Agree w/The Lens.   Embarrassing.

I only heard it once for maybe 4 cycles, I was hopeful the classier students ended it.

[moomoo]

Jay didn't seem to mind.

If it was so bad comparatively, would he have tweeted this?

"One of the best environmentss in the @BIGEASTMBB ! @MarquetteMBB has a great team and great fans - another tough Big East battle !!"

[tower912]

Did the students dump beer on Jay?   No?    How about pennies?    Did they throw pennies at opposing foul shooters?  Pikers.     Kids chant dumb things.    3 decades ago, when we could generate enough energy to rise above the bad basketball that was 84-88, we gravitated toward the organic fertilizer chant.   
  Yes, as a middle aged parent of an impressionable 11 year old, I would rather not hear that on TV.    I use it as a teaching moment.   But it is rank hypocrisy to condemn what they are doing when you chanted very bad things once upon a time.

We all agree, Cardinal fans are the worst. 

NO WE DON'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some of us think Cardinal fans are the best fans in baseball. Smart, refined and honor the character of our opponents (unless they are the Cubs, in which case we rather get a little smug!). We understand the nuances of the game, respect it and cheer pleasantly for America's best baseball team.

Cardinal fans expect nothing other than to win.

[MUEng92]

You kinda just made his point for him by putting on display exactly what annoys all non Cardinal fans about Cardinal fans

He hit all the points, just missed the casual racism.

[LloydsLegs]

Agree with Lens, and  with those who rightly point out that we did dumb stuff back in the day too. 

Sort of like my son doing dumb stuff just like I used to.  I get it, but I don't endorse it. 

I let him know I did it too and that it was dumb then and is dumb now.

I encourage the students to be more clever than course.

Go Sox.

[Warriors4ever]

The chant was embarassing, and it was done multiple times. When it starts the band should start chanting something else. And no, we didn't use that as a chant back in my student days.
The OP equating this with Sox fans is also embarassing and juvenile.  Go Sox.

[Galway Eagle]

We changed f*ck the Irish and f*ck the badgers when I was there. I don't remember it being f*ck whoever we happened to be playing though.

For sure. "Our students were trashy, classless and embarrassing!" Proceeds to make a trashy, classless and embarrassing comment.

In the email from the University to students today was this nugget:

"We are looking forward to hosting another big crowd tonight at the game against Butler and can't wait for the Blue & Gold faithful to display its support in a manner that will make all individuals associated with the university proud during Saturday's game."

That's code for "please don't do the f you chant again"

[Goose]

Definitely not a fan of it, but do remember being in college and doing stupid things. I was sitting with my seven year old nephew that thought it was big time funny, which made me laugh.

[frozena pizza]

It's not classy and I never did the F-word chant when I was a student.  I get that it happens all over the place.

Having said that, I was at the game and the student section overall was fantastic.  Very impressed with the energy level.

[Windyplayer]

A big F you to the student section.

[barfolomew]

In the early 90s we had a few buses of us knuckleheads for the MU-ND game at the Joyce Center.
Don't remember much from that trip, but our section's chants of "Digger beats his meat!" were audible from the other side of the arena.

BREAKING: Intoxicated College Students Exhibit Immaturity

[Galway Eagle]

I miss the band playing that one song and everyone saying "hey! You suck!" Damn Larry williams

[#UnleashSean]

My college had hockey as our most popular sport. (for a Florida school and a club team it was weird).

Place was packed every game in a super small rink. 1 dollar beers and a packed house made for a fun environment.

Our chants of the ref f---s his mom and calling every opposing goalie a goat f----ker for literally the entire game makes the mu crowd look for tame. Oh btdubs this was the most ''prestigious'' aerospace engineering school in the us. Didn't make us look any worse. Just kids having a good time.
