Student Section Name Suggestions

Hey all.
It's been a while since I've been perusing the forums, but I figured what better place to go to for this than here. I'm working with a committee here at UC to finally give the student sections for UC basketball and football games an actual name (eg. The eRUPPtion Zone, The Oakland Zoo, etc.) and was looking to see if anyone had any suggestions.

Who knows, maybe your name could be forever etched into the University of Cincinnati's history.

So far we've listed the following as suggestions:

Clifton Cage
Black Reign
McMicken Monsters
Red and Black Ruffians
Red and Black Maniacs
Red and Black Barbarians
Red and Black Brutes
Red and Black Radicals
The Den
Black Hole
upROAR
rUCkus
The Lair
The CLAWset
The Noise
Clifton Confines
The Cincinnati Zoo
The Black "C"

A lot of those were just thrown in as ideas to generate other potential names. Obviously some of them would definitely not be used.

I am still brainstorming ideas but not to rain on the parade here but besides a few marquee games isn't the student crowd......really lame. It has never been the same since Huggs left and even with success doesn't really seem to get better. Besides coming up with a name do you have a plan to get a student section that actually deserves a name?

I answered a survey about a year ago for "The Cage", I do like "The Black Hole" though.

The student section is pretty atrocious right now, which is why we are trying everything in our power to revamp it. It's one of the things that disappoints me most about UC is the lack of student support, especially at basketball games. A new student section name is just one step in a much larger plan to not only make our student section not only more unified and on the same page as everyone else, but also an exciting thing that students want to be a part of. My goal, and the goal of the rest of the committee that I'm on, is that next year our student sections will be almost unrecognizable from past years.
