Everyone is disappointed when our teams don’t do well. These kids aren’t waking up at 5am to go to practice, then a full day of class, then going to bed at 9pm when everyone else is out drinking and partying to lose games. They face a ton of pressure given their profile. They get a ton of abuse on social media.
That doesn’t mean constructive critiques and criticisms aren’t fair, but it seems to have taken a turn for the worst and I wonder how folks can consider themselves fans while taking a shit on 18, 19, 20 year old kids who put in a lot of work and sacrifice, regardless of outcome. It’s embarrassing and probably damages our recruiting.
These are our guys (and gals), act like it.
