Though I suspect most on this board are familiar with the tragedy Blake has dealt with, Jeff Hunter wrote a really good in-depth article for the Spring issue of the Utah State magazine: https://utahstatemagazine.usu.edu/athletics/the-deepest-grief-blake-anderson-seeks-to-help-others-following-anothe...

I think USU gets general hatred for a combination of our success in conference and some unfair religious prejudice because we are in Utah.
And the Hurd/spectrum makes their lives a living hell once a year.

This, along with our general success, probably has a lot to do with it.

Fafner (Matt Sonnenberg) should be the next one inducted. He led the effort in the 2000's of coordinating the Chaos. One of the original two founders of "The Refraction" newsletter.

Thank you to all that have responded and for sharing the Statesman articles. I've been able to get in touch with Tyler. Ha ha, good memories of the A-hole shirt. I still have the shorts that say "I'm proud of my A" as well. This doesn't go all the way back to the beginning or include the past three ...

I'm working on an article regarding the history of the gameday shirt. I know the first one showed up in the early 2000s (2003 I want to say?), and I believe it was a student by the last name of Olsen that really pushed the whole thing through. Tyler maybe? Does anyone know if that's who it was, and ...

While we are at it, what about a student fee refund for the athletics fees that they are asking students to go into debt for? Students can opt out of that fee at any time, even when sports are being played. Only graduate students can opt out of student fees. It is not an option for undergraduate st...

The New Mexico State game.....I was there with my Pop as a 16 year old. I remember it well. The game was in the 1970-71 season. We played New Mexico State twice, both in 71. We lost at Los Crucial, and won in Logan. Our guard Tebbs, went up for a lay-up and was roughed up pretty good by a New Mexic...

There have been mostly some amazing ups and such crazy games that I've seen in the Spectrum. I would be re-missed though not to mention the biggest deflating game for me: UCI vs USU 2002....Jerry Green's "The Dagger" shot right after Ronnie Ross hit an amazing 3 pointer with 4 seconds left. It snap...

I'm looking for feedback on the most iconic moments and or traditions that have taken place in the Spectrum. For the Spectrum Magic shirts this year we wanted to incorporate some of those moments into the design. Since I'm only in my mid-30's, though, my memory is only good for three or so of the fi...

Exactly my thought. That’s the solution because premium was never promised that others wouldn’t be let in as well, correct? And if they were, it seems they would be ok with letting the few people that camped out who aren’t premium in... they won’t even know! All of the solutions mentioned in this t...

I think some praise for the student section deserves it's own thread. The students absolutely brought it. They were creative, loud, and awesome. It felt like a party again.

I’m only disappointed because game day shirts have stopped being game day shirts. It’s just an Aggie shirt. I like Aggie shirts. But I’m probably in the minority on that I want something to differentiate game day shirts from other shirts with the bull on it. I miss when they had the year on them to...

Also, I'm happy to engage in dialogue regarding the current iterations if anyone feels so inclined. One of the most asked for things in regards to the next gameday shirt has been a large logo. Along with that, one of the bookstore's biggest requests is for more stuff with the bull logo. Hence the in...

Is it overkill to share this in the other forums on the site, or should I just leave it here? Personally, I spend most my time in the football and basketball forums and don't go into the general forum all that often. Thoughts?
