I've got to believe every season ticket and dollar makes a difference, otherwise I'd lose my mind.

UM football is one of my passions in life. My father attended the university in the 1970s, and raised me to bleed orange and green. Despite living in the Northeast, I’ve had enough privilege to attend UM games my entire life. In all my years attending games, I have never felt the helplessness, incompetency and lack of enthusiasm that was displayed on Thursday night, in the Bronx (including Clemson in 2015, Notre Dame in 2012, and Syracuse in 1998). This community, fan base, and most importantly, the student-athletes, deserve better. You must demand accountability and action!
I’ve been writing this letter in my head since the end of the 2017 season, but now that I’ve put “pen to paper,” I feel the need to keep the message simple: until tangible steps are taken to address the obvious issues within the program, I will not be renewing my season tickets or financial contributions. Admittedly, not a major financial blow, but it is the only way I can communicate my displeasure.
I will never stop watching, or supporting this program, but I need to take a financial stand. The redeyes, early morning flights, long drives and hotels for this heartache is unacceptable.
Please, force the necessary action that is needed. Thank you!
