If You Look Real Close, You Might See a wvu Fan in the Stands....

We sold over 1k tickets for the tourney.
That is more tickets than C1aa tourney sold for all sessions.
You can't here all the cheers every time Oklahoma turned the ball over?
You had like 20+ chances to hear it.

Our coverage, fame, exposure, facilities, financial resources, comparative academic standing, and WVU being Mama's favorite, really chafes the Herd fans. They get so frustrated, every year, being the little train that could and end up derailing every year and spewing tax payer dollars everywhere. They'll put their little cars back on the track in September and start the, 'I think I can, I think I can, ....' chant once more. But, it is comical to watch every year.
Under the Kubler-Ross model, I doubt Marshall fans will ever achieve the acceptance stage. They stay static in the denial. They tried 'bargaining' but it yielded a 5 for 2 football series and 7 consecutive losses. They tried to bargain the BB series and it got them ostracized. So, back to the denial stage..... Classic

I suppose if you keep your blinders on... pretty vocal WVU contingent as well. When does the herd play in their championship game? Looking forward to seeing little brother play their way into the tourney.
They got dunked on again a few minutes ago. They had to replace Middle Tennessee's backboard 4 times already.
Very well thought-out post. Well said.
However, the only part I disagree with is the part above. Herd fans don't wait until September - they are now entering the part of the year where they are annual juggernauts, the offseason.
It's an ongoing back-to-back-etc. for Marshall fans from April to August every year. As always, they're worldbeaters when they don't have to prove anything. The false bravado this time of year from them is fascinating.
