long as we are good and staying out of trouble, etc. 5 of the top 12 guys on the team are members and I know there are people out there that if it dipped below a certain number, they wouldn't feel that great about it.
I asked my Seminary teaching brother and he said he would be fine even if there weren't any members on the team, which surprised me.
I guess it would be like if the University of Tennessee bball didn't have anyone from Tennessee on their team, which I guess their fans would still be fine with. Although a private institution not having anyone with ties to the sponsor might be a little more unorthodox.
