Topic: Landon's H-D Article on D'Antoni's Transfer Portal Philosophy

Finding someone to replace Kinsey is going to be hard to do, and will probably take several others stepping up their roles.

I don't disagree with Dan's recruiting philosophy though. Most small conference schools (SBC,MAC,etc) are hoping that 1/4 maybe 2/4 you get a team that gels together and can be something special.

Agree, the ambiance is even difference on TV.

Wish we could bring back, correctly this time, the Bring on the Herd chant before they take the court.

It goes like this, the "on" is protracted.  Bring Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn the Herd, Bring Onnnnnnnnnnnnnn, the Herd; this is the early 70's version from the Field House.

Easy to do, the team gives the broadcaster a "one Minute" warning, and they then tell the crowd, One Minute to Herd Time.  The Cheer Leaders then start the Chant; Bring Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn the Herd.

It was electric, fantastic, dynamic, and ramped the crowd up so much that they were in every game from the first tip.

Lots of good games in the late 60's & early 70's with lots of excitement!!!!!!!!!

That's not I remember that. (Though, I'm not sure.)

The problem is that OOOOONNNNNN doesn't have a predicable, simple rhythm. And Mr KIndred steps on it anyway.

I remember
 /Bring on the Herd, rest/
  X      8th 8th  X       O
               
x = quarter note
8th = 8th note
O = quarter rest.

Simple, with a easy rhythm.

Think of TE--ta-ta-TE--rest.  Arguably the two 8th notes should be dotted 8th-16th note.

I can't do music notation on Herdfans. 

Let's say this: The chant should be simple and rhythmic, like
We are Are--Mar-shall. 
Which is pretty much 3/4 time:
quarter-quarter-rest/quarter-quarter-rest/

Not like the Kirtner BRRINNGG OOOONNN the Herd

Be careful, bust.  It's very clear than you only have about that many LEFT!!  :D
