How did Carlin ever get into radio with such a terrible voice? Really he needs to be replaced.

I totally disagree about Carlin
Love him and Ray Lucas together for football.
"Pandemonium in Piscataway!"

Also like Joe Nolan and his 1st down call, the air horn, the cannon, the Chop (Eric Foster!)

Fix the RU chant (yeah, right)

New band director and larger band with more support ($ and otherwise) for them.

A lot of what is listed here--is this stuff Ash will/should be focused on? Carlin, the marching band, the 3rd down, another first down, DJ Yoshi?

Should we have him do a demo for a new mantra like PJ Fleck? We could make it row the boat since we are on the Banks of the Raritan.

Our weekly kickoff out of bounds
Don't mean to hijack, but under the current rules this is the least of our concerns.

If you kick the ball out of the end zone, which arguably is the best possible kickoff, they get it on the 25. If you kick the ball out of bounds, which arguably is the worst possible kickoff, they get it on the 35. Ten yards doesn't seem to be an adequate differential between best and worst.

I don't really care which one's they get rid of, most of the suggestions are good,
however I would like to make a suggestion for replacing sayings like FAMILY,
and Keep chopping. How's this? Hold up signs at home games that say,
"Fock with us and you will get an Ash kicking."

We should get rid of the band unless it steps into the bigtime... double up on dance team instead...yes we should have the largest dance team in the nation

I think we do have the "largest" dance team.

Band director is on top of my list. The band seems to have no football knowledge at all. Constantly break into our Rrrrrr Uuuuuu the few times we do it right and play until the snap when WE have the ball.

Uncle Bobs reasoning for getting rid of Bruce was that his voice was associated with losing. I think Carlin is too much of a reminder of a different era, Hobbs needs to find a fresh voice

I hope that he isn't wasting time on nonsense. Talk to the people in charge of that stuff if you want those things change.

I only think I want him to get rid of is disappointing seasons.

Schiano had his hand in everything including our beloved block R.

The constant announcements during the game and all the awards presented at the stadium. Obviously, these are controlled by the Athletic Dept and not the HC. So just wishful thinking.
I agree... The constant ads ruins the crowd momentum and I'm sure it does the same for the players

Totally disagree with this.

Carlin is a reminder of a different era?
Pandemonium in Piscataway?

Seriously.
Do you think Syracuse, Virginia, Maryland, Georgia, Miami, Illinois, ... Are looking for new radio announcers because they hired new coaches?
That is ridiculous.

I live in Virginia, and Johnny Holliday has been doing Maryland games (basketball and football forever, over many different coaching staffs.

Just because Maryland is down now in football is no reason to replace the announcer.

I like Carlin and his enthusiasm.
Plus he has great chemistry with Lucas.

If someone wants to replace Carline because they don't like him, that is one thing.
But not because he is associated with losing or started in a different era.

Thank you. Also, Chris Carlin...his voice is awful and he's a bad rep of RU football. DJ Yoshi...this is not teen night at Hunka Bunka...it's Big Ten football. Let PSU be the clowns piping in the electronic meathead music. Also...the train horn, CHOP, F.A.M.I.L.Y, T.B.A., and most importantly please call Nike and get us respectable looking uniforms with only ONE helmet. Tired of the 4 different helmets crap. Thank you.

The fact that you brought up Hunka Bunka shows how old and out of touch you are

Was that a good thing? Unless it directly effects the team, it is not his problem. Getting rid of nonsense like TBA, FAMILY, CHOP, 1-0, etc , I would welcome that, but if he decides to keep it, that is fine too. If he wants to talk to Nike about getting some new more traditional uniforms, that is fine. But worrying about DJs, Radio Announcers, gates and chicken fingers isn't and shouldn't be his problem. That is all that I am saying.

The crap entrance of the 'team has left the locker room '. Then it takes the team forever to get into the stadium . Where is the locker room Johnson park ?

Just wanted to make sure everyone noticed how little plum knows about what happens at games.
