Appropriately, right at the end (3:19 or so) there is a student (about 5 rows back) in a Duke shirt.

Thanks for posting that. I went to Taylor for a couple of semesters in the late 60's. The school is very remote, cornfields all around. The students really supported sports which, when I was there, was NAIA in the Hoosier Collegiate Conference.

The fans at Taylor and at Utah State are particularly impressive, IMO:

Reminds me of the old Duke football cheer (late 60's/early 70's, back when there was a "head cheerleader" w/ a mic) called "The Sonic Boom". Basically, the students would all jump up & down but make no sound, then after sitting back down, they would scream there heads off. Very cool when seen & heard from the opposite side of Wally World.

Fantastic video, along with others related to it. Great find. I think we need to step it up now, or we will lose our reputation as being the most notable fans. One thing that may need correcting, however, as I believe the Duke shirt is actually a Depaul shirt.

Kinda reminds me of a couple Cameron cheers:

While playing VT during their 1st visit (I think) to CIS after Greenberg has been ejected and left the floor (after being "attacked" by the Crazies, of course):

Pointing to K: "COACH!"
Pointing to VT bench: "No coach!"

(repeated often)

The other:

Pointing to K: "Sure!"
Pointing to sweaty Gary: "Un-sure!"

(repeated often)

I distinctly remember that.

Taylor and Utah State clearly have some intense basketball fans. I've found the Euroleague's Panathinaikos AO fans to be one of the craziest though:



Where else do you have something that looks like a bonfire in the crowd?

Anybody got subtitles, or the equivalent thereof, for the USU kids?

I know the chant before the tip is "I Believe That We Will Win."

...if you like cheers done by every high school student section in the nation.

Props to Taylor, though. Silent Night looks pretty cool.
