Maybe one of those petitions
Maybe one of those petitions
Maybe one of those petitions specific to the University would be helpful? Like this one, for example, when students were upset about Governor Snyder giving the commencement speech last year:
https://www.msa.umich.edu/upetition/p/ReconsiderRickSnyder/
That way students and alumni can use their uniqnames to sign something in order to express their distaste in this matter.

We like you, MSC, and we know Brandon is making you the MAD DOLLAZ, but sooner or later, you're going to have to stand up to him and tell him that Michigan Athletics is MORE than a business. Once in a while, it'll be necessary to take a hit on something.

ehh...the thing really is...
ehh...the thing really is...
THIS IS MICHIGAN. At one point we ranked behind the New York Yankees and the Dallas Cowboys in net financial 'worth'...the only NCAA institution even close to the top ten in revenue...ONE trip to Dallas isn't going to break any bank, we make enough in concessions, marketing of that little M that Canham made famous long ago, that this is utter stupidity. I could personally care less if the band is there or not and I can say I'm glad things didn't work out for me to attend either. At this rate as much as I thought DB would really straighten out the athletics programs, he's proving to be a corporate turdbomb in some regards.
This whole issue is moronic. HE screwed up giving away a home game, and like greed always does, the loss isn't coming out of HIS pocket, someone else will pay for it, in this regard the band and the fans who want them there. What a joke.

The Michigan fans better sing their hearts out after touchdowns if the MMB doesn't go to Dallas. I hope the band goes, though. I wonder if the demand for tickets has DB wanting to sell those seats.

Can you imagine Denard scoring on a 70 yard running play in the first quarter and The Victors isn't playing? Great way to open the season. Hope you take the money you save and take your family out to a nice dinner at a restaurant the rest of us can't afford, Dave.

Not having the band will also seemingly diminish the presence of the Michigan fanbase a lot, I'm guessing. Bama is going to be there in full force and we don't want this to seem like any less of a 'neutral' site than it already is.

no there are some games they don't travel for. i went to chicago for the northwestern game, and they didn't come. i think that was more about lack of seating, since their stadium isn't very big.

Exactly. What is the point of turning a home game into an away game? At least get a return home game out of it. Or have Alabama come play in Indianapolis next year or sonething like that.
