The whole atmosphere at ND was lackadaisical. Did you see the large open spaces of empty seats when the camera panned the arena. Clearly, there was a lack of interest in the game by the ND fans. -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

In reply to: Rambacker 's message, "I thought they came out at the start looking asleep, played like they were asleep, made a feeble attempt at waking up toward the end, and then went right back to sleep. They were clearly not excited to be playing in the NIT. If you saw them during the BE season, they played hard during those games. Not last night." on Wed March 16, 2005 09:17:55

Expectations at ND are through the roof for all sports. Making the NIT was a huge letdown for their fans and players, and it showed with their lackadaisical play and sparse crowd. (NT) -- Rambacker, Wed March 16, 2005 11:48:26
- All excuses for their poor performance aside, the bottom line is they lost to a supposedly lesser team, and that's all that matters. I'm thrilled that they got humbled in this manner. I have absolutely zero sympathy for any team that steps on the court and doesn't want to play. I hope we should be so lucky as to encounter such teams in the future.

- Wow, I really feel bad for the whole Notre Dame community. BTW, they didn't have to accept nit invite. (NT) -- Frank, Wed March 16, 2005 21:06:06
