There's a little over a week until the annual Black and Gold game that wraps up the spring football season. Head Coach Rob Ambrose took the time this past week to meet and eat with the students of Towson University at various campus locations.
Thursday afternoon, Ambrose, his son Ryan, members of the Athletic Department and Dr. Terri Hall of Student Life were present at Newell dining hall as Towson students shared a meal and football talk with the new head coach. Even Doc, the tiger mascot, made an appearance.
About a dozen students sat with the coach and his 5 year-old son. Various students who passed by would stop to say hi and share a few words. The entire volleyball team came up to introduce themselves. Ambrose was particularly taken by 6 foot 5 middle blocker Susan Gansor. After she introduced herself, Ambrose had to stand up next to her to compare his height and immediately sat down.
The topics of questions ranged from football tailgates to a hopeful rise of in interest regarding the current lack of attendance at games. When a student asked Ambrose how he plans to put fans in the seats of Johnny Unitas Stadium, his response was simple.
"Win," Ambrose said. "Or at least play a hell of a lot harder."
