March 26, 201412 yr Really don't get this. Why does it bother anyone? If this gets you upset, I wish I had your life where this is what bothers me in the world. This.
March 26, 201412 yr I think court storming us reserved for big moments. Win an NIT quarterfinal game isn't (or at least shouldn't be) considered a big moment for a BCS school. That's my opinion
March 26, 201412 yr I think court storming us reserved for big moments. Win an NIT quarterfinal game isn't (or at least shouldn't be) considered a big moment for a BCS school. That's my opinion I wish kids at every school had the spirit and desire to celebrate every win by their team by storming the court to celebrate with their team.

March 26, 201412 yr So Duke fans should storm the court then they beat Mercer? ABSOLUTELY!!!!!! Mercer. Coastal Carolina. Lehigh. VCU. UNC. I don't care who it is. I LOVE court storming and have said as much multiple times on here when people act like they are too good to storm the court. And NOBODY would storm the court the way the Crazies would.
March 26, 201412 yr So Duke fans should storm the court then they beat Mercer? Duke fans stormed the court several years back after defeating unranked Virginia Tech on a last second shot at the buzzer from about 35 feet. I'll never understand why celebrating wins has to have rules and regulations.
March 26, 201412 yr Duke fans stormed the court several years back after defeating unranked Virginia Tech on a last second shot at the buzzer from about 35 feet. I'll never understand why celebrating wins has to have rules and regulations. I think there are legitimate saftey reasons for why rushing the court is problematic. Those I'm concerned with. I'm less concerned with the idea that there are "moments it's appropriate".

I'll never understand why celebrating wins has to have rules and regulations. I'll never understand why cheering as loud as you can and giving a standing ovation isn't enough. Only a matter of time before someone gets seriously hurt.
March 26, 201412 yr I was watching this live. I'd be embarrassed if I was a Clemson fan or alum. I'd be even more embarrassed if I were a player for Clemson. I mean, what are the expectations?
March 26, 201412 yr I'd be even more embarrassed if I were a player for Clemson. I mean, what are the expectations? Speaking as a fan of a school that recently won the NIT Championship, I can say that for most of us, the feeling was one of confusion, not unbridled joy. Good for Clemson if they're that wound up, but for most Dayton fans, it was sort of a downer to have been left out of the tournament field that year, but the team showed up and won the whole thing, which was kind of cool. Still felt a bit dirty celebrating any of the victories. It was cool to beat UNC in the championship, though...
March 26, 201412 yr I think there are legitimate saftey reasons for why rushing the court is problematic. Those I'm concerned with. I'm less concerned with the idea that there are "moments it's appropriate". I get the safety aspect. People rarely say safety is why they are against court rushing.
March 26, 201412 yr I'd be even more embarrassed if I were a player for Clemson. I mean, what are the expectations? Why shouldn't a player be excited about advancing to Madison Square Garden in the NIT?
March 26, 201412 yr Why shouldn't a player be excited about advancing to Madison Square Garden in the NIT? Is your goal as a player to read MSG in the NIT? That's a nice goal for a mid-major school but surely Clemson has higher expectations.
