Overall or students?

For students I’ll go with .00001%.

he is the age of <half of our current fan base so probably more than you think

Yeah. Was going to say if you get out of the student section it might be alarmingly high.

the guy said we are a favorite in the CAA from what he has read... sounds like some of our posters

 

[Pikapppatri8]

They still think we are in the CAA.

In response to Streamers

From what I have read, GMU is one of the favorites in the CAA this year. So it will be a good test for the Quakers but not at the FSU level.

And an alarming number of them likely still refer to Donahue as that “young troublemaker on the TV”

if our students don’t know who Phil Donahue is then I question the quality of education they are receiving these days.

Solid bet.

I was doing genre analysis and placing genres in their historical context and did an experiment to see if they knew any of the big TV shows from their parents’ generation. And pretty much zero (Fresh Prince was about it). Was even scarier when I went back to the early 80s and 70s.

But that’s what streaming does.

If you guys want to know I can ask on Monday and see. Unscientific poll of about 75 students.

A lot of older TV series were binged during the pandemic, so you might have better luck explaining to students that Phil is married to Marlo Thomas, who played Jennifer Aniston's mother on Friends.

Wow - didn't know that.

Excited to see Otis, and how the staff plans on using him. Hopefully he’s back at 100%.

Was thinking about Oduro switching at the top of the key leaving Hartwell on the big. This will look at lot different when it is Frazier out there playing the 2 (I’m going to guess we see a lot less of XJ/Polite and Hartwell on the floor together once everyone is healthy and available

The comment about our transfers out and in, and sarcastically asking if we have installed revolving doors yet...
I hope we beat them to a pulp.
