We had a top 25 opponent, and also a rival, with the chance to host and be a national seed yet the stands were half empty all 3 games. When the fans leave you and the money power brokers have had enough Kingston will be let go. We have reached that point.

Fans not showing up is not why we lost. I want to preface that before I dive into this one.

I think it is still frustrating to see the fanbase quit on this team prior to this weekend. All the above that you stated should merit fans in the stands. Messina, Petry, Jones, etc all deserved that. If fans wanted Kingston gone, I completely understand, but when a team is coming off a supers, and then was in line to potentially be a national seed with 2/3, our fans shouldn't be not showing up. Obviously they have quit on the team, so I agree you have to look to a new coach, but we shouldn't have quit prior to the series
