Vaccarro likes playing on the road because the fans are louder.

Not exactly the thing you want to hear from a captain. Recruits pay attention to this stuff. He is only hurting the program. Kenny needs to shut the hell up and work on getting better as a player and as a defensive unit.

yep it suck for recruits to hear that.

but you know who it suck for more, OUR FANS!!

Kenny V is completely accurate with his comments. I have been to Tiger stadium many times, no comparison at all. Kyle field has a louder stadium. I have only been to Athens once but they were louder than DKR and Stanford was pretty close to DKR. Our fan base isnt as loud as it needs to be for the majority of the game. There are times the stadium gets loud but not the majority of the game. OUR FANS NEED TO GET LOUDER!

In defense, while stadium atmosphere might captivate a recruit. Winning sends a bigger message. Think of the fans that can afford to go. Austin is a big fvcking town with many transplants that get into Texas football. The only pro team is the Spurs in the entire area Austin-San Antonio area. So this leads to the Longhorns being the main team that gets outside support and people with money dont like to be told to get loud.

Now the student section isn't an excuse, they should be loud but really i don't care as long as we win.

Age old issue. Students need to be rowdier at DKR and at the Erwin Center.
