I just wanted the band there to crank "we are the champions" when coach Washington and the team hoist up the Big South Championship...that's all, the band don't have to do halftime or play nan-nother note of music for me 🤣

We had the same discussion when it was determined the BGMM was not going to NDSU in 2020. I didn't agree with it then, don't agree now, and won't going forward. But I guess thats the way it's going to be and just make sure I show up every time able to support Aggie Athletics

Why should athletics' supporters give money to the band if they only exist to entertain themselves and band heads?

Thrilla is right BUT band kids see it TOTALLY different. For them its (band > team). Was performing a halftime show really that important? I know it can't be about the money...Support goes a long way, and I really hope that they go.

So Martin deserves final say huh. Lol next your gonna want Chancellor Martin to call the offensive plays because Barnette is a university employee Or what defense Coach Shumpert should run because yet again he's a university employee Or maybe he should tell the Dean of the school of business what times classes will be next semester cause remember, they also are a university employee

Now, a few weeks back, they went to a competition in Charlotte that, in the grand scheme of things, was not that important. But, now, here we sit in a championship game needing all the support and help we can get and we just arbitrarily decide not to go. NOT COOL...

A little disappointed in the news as I feel we’re doing exactly what Gardner Webb hoped would happen.
From an entertainment standpoint they could care less if our band comes, however they also know if the band shows that’s extra support tilted towards the visiting team.
They strategically threw every possible roadblock at us and we fell for it. Now we’re here arguing amongst each other instead of preparing to go down there as one unified front and take over the place.

This isn’t every possible road block, it’s two insignificant items…paying and can’t perform at halftime. These are very small insignificant things in the grand scheme of things.
