Good win last night! Was disappointed in the attendance (again). I sat at the top of the student section for a while, most of the kids that were there were pretty apathetic...checking their phones, barely paying attention to the game. Can't figure out why we can't get fans to come out and support this team!

Are they going to build permanent stands or just bleachers? It would be nice to see some permanent stands with some shade!!

I wouldn't be surprised if beach volleyball is added, the cost of facilities is low. You just need to add some sand courts. I know both Sac State, Cal, St Mary's and Santa Clara recently added beach volleyball teams, so at least there is local competition. If this sport doesn't add enough bodies, then rowing would probably be the choice.

Not even worth talking about, need to focus on winning more games and filling up the stadium first. I think if the team wins, the students will come out. But in general the overall fan base for football and basketball is just not there. I was surprised at the small attendance at the Northern Colorado basketball game. I noticed they had pulled out the center bleachers and was hoping the stands would fill in, but the attendance was lousy.

Yes, very impressed with Shorts. Exactly the time of gem that Les needs to keep finding. Too small to get recruited by the power 5 schools, but a great player.

UOP fell to UCLA in one semifinal. USC squeaked by Cal in the other by one goal in an absolute war in the pool. 3 or 4 Cal players were majored including their best attacker Hooper. Lachlan Edwards from USC punched a Cal player and was thrown out for brutality. UCLA won the final over USC 7-5, a close game the whole way. Utengsyu Aquatic Center at USC is impressive. Schaal is a nice facility, but hopefully the Ags can continue improving the facility. It would be great to see them add stands on the opposite side of the pool like at Stanford and USC. By the way, the Aggies finished ranked 8th in the country, another great year!

Doubt that there will be much attendance, I think any soccer fans already go to Sac Republic games.

Great crowd at The Grad! It was packed and the local Fox affiliate was there. It was packed and everyone had a great time cheering on the Ags

Missouri gave Martin a 7 year deal at $2 million a year MORE than he was making at Cal. That's why he left.

I don't think Les will get any consideration for the Cal job.

Whatever they did for the last game they should do for every game. It would be great to have 3k plus at every home game

Great win!

Great win! It was fun to see all of those 3's go down! Disappointing crowd, hopefully the place fills up Saturday

Hopefully he is into sports, it was great having Hexter show so much enthusiasm towards the program

Saw Coach Gould at the south Davis Starbucks this afternoon, so he's still in town. I suspect he will land somewhere soon.

The huge gaps in the upper bleachers are terrible. It would be great if they could have a phased improvement of the facility. Maybe they could address the excess space behind the hoops by reconstructing one end, making it more compact and closer to the action. And then address the other side. It would also be nice to have a center scoreboard. It would be great to have the best arena/atmosphere in the Big West. In terms of hosting donors, if they did a fixed deck on one sideline they could add some nice donor suites or a large donor room. Santa Clara did this when they renovated their arena

The coaches probably tell them that they have 3 spots and have made 6 offers, if you wait too long the offer may no longer be there In the case of the UConn kid, he was committed and they were committed to him, then they dropped him at the last minute. Not the same situation.

For the first time in the history of UCD athletics, a coaching position has been endowed!! The men's water polo head coach is now an endowed position. I assume that Kevin Blue is following the lead of Stanford, where a huge number of coaching positions are endowed. This is a great day for UCD athletics as it provides long term security for a non revenue sport. Hopefully over time, more positions will become endowed. Leyson, the current head coach was also extended. He has done a great job so this is a good move for the stability of the program.

I wish there was something more concrete on the facility improvements, it was just mentioned by Bruce as more of a hope than an actual plan by the university.

Seems like a game the Ags need to win heading into the Big West

Nice donation!!
