They just need to recycle ONE dance routine from 2005 or 2007, songs and all, and everyone would go crazy

This is how you start the season! The best show of the night! It was pure boredom until they walked in! Yesss Sophisticats and 14k! The Horsemen ATE! 10's across the board! #HailWildcats

Let me say this. The Marching Wildcats are 2nd to none. The Rock, y’all definitely are the MVP’s. The sound was sounding. 14k is back to where they rightfully belong and the horsemen are the clue that holds it all together. I’m so proud and excited about this coming season. See y’all at Homecoming.

@@fishingflawda From the outside looking in I think the decrease in members has to do with the school and funding not kids being disinterested in the program. It’s still a big band just not what we use to seeing from BCU. I think Dr Wells is a great band director and still better than a lot of these younger band directors now, I do think it’s about that time to retire. I would just like to see them play more songs cuz I have a list of songs I would love to hear them play cuz their sound is better than any band I’ve heard in my opinion and I didn’t even go to BCU lol

I remember BCU use to be THAT BAND. Then they tried to appeal to certain demographics and fell off tremendously. Now they are not mentioned w the respect that they deserve. Hopefully this is the start of embracing self as self as it was decades ago. Balance is key!
