UNI Coach wants UNI fans to emulate WSU fans

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

True Story:

Took my sister-in-law with us to a game last year, and was trying to explain the "Stand for Defense" while clapping and cheering. Told her we stand til they score. They scored a FT. She sat, I said sorry, til they score a Field Goal. She said what about goaltending?

Awesome!

I still say we should put instructions on the big board for the crowd. They get it to stand for the defense, BUT ONLY IF WE SCORE FIRST. Every time our opponent scores first, everyone sits down. Am I wrong or are we not supposed to stand until we score AND until our defense allows the opponent to score?

Actually, you only sit when the opposing team scores. But in the event it is a free throw, everyone remains standing until the first "field goal." However, if the field goal occurs and it is the third Thusday of a month that ends in "r" then...

Is it really that difficult?

This did not require your smart a$$ answer. NO, it's not that difficult and I am not stupid. However, if the "Stand for Defense" has never been precisely explained other than "Stand for the Defense" you might see how someone just might feel it a little odd that you stand and clap until your OPPONENT scores, but not until your own team scores.
