"The reason why it’s been stopped is because there have been too many complaints from fans to the athletic department that the student section was saying something else that the fans thought was vulgar and inappropriate," Watkins said.

"This is a frustrating situation for all and a perfect example of how a few complaints or a few individuals doing the wrong thing negatively affect a great 10-year tradition."

UF also doesn't want its students chanting "Move Back You Suck" chant.

Those not familiar with the chant, UF has always played it whenever the opponent has a penalty.

The pussification of America continues...

How can such fragile flowers even consider attending a violent event like football?

LSU has had like 4 songs "retired" by the band director due to vulgar chants by the student section. It sucks when the actions of few result in the majority being punished, but that is how society works. I can drive a car at over .08 but because some sorority girl killed a family at .08 we all have to suffer.

I, along with countless others, am just devestated by these recent turn of events. Nothing signifies college football more so that the "move back, you suck" chant from UF. A tradition old as time. What a senseless act

How is that any different than "Yellow hammer, rammer jammer" bull crap that the Bama fans like to do after a game?

I was looking at gatorcounty and the older posters over there complain about crowd noise and student support not being the same but then they're ecstatic about the band getting rid of one of the best songs for getting the students loud and engaged.

I always chanted "too bad you suck" my stepson loved it when he was 8 yrs old and laughed like hell...sad. I dont care about Dragnet theme song...but the "you suck" is so hilarious.

Really?

Guess I've never paid attention to it. Sounds kind of dumb. Not bannable, though.

I was only being semi-serious. I am not going to argue the validity of DWI laws on a football message board...just using it as an example for when the many pay for the mistakes of the few.


Asshat.

I've got the answer...

All college music departments should say 'frick you' to the athletic department and quit coming to the games.

The band does not exist solely for the purpose of providing entertainment at athletic events in the first place.

That will probably go away at some point (already did in the early 2000s before coming back). It's a real shame too because it is such a phenomenal jimmie rustler.
