For those who just saw the BYU-CCU game, it’s pretty clear — we can learn from this crazy season. We schedule games years out (because we have to since everyone does it and we grab what we can get), but we miss opportunities for compelling matchups. #bracketbusters #fixthesystem.

We are heartbroken. We are angry. But most of all, we are strong together, a family of Niners who love our school and are here for one another. We hold the victims close in our hearts. #CharlotteStrong
