The biggest sin of the LSJUMB is few musicians they have now.

They need to be 3x the size to do a decent field show.

At this size they should stick to basketball.

Absolutely, totally, completely, (albeit unfortunately) correct.

This is Correct, but please remember that Stanford has only 6400 undergraduates, versus 18,000 for Oregon and SC and 30,000+ for almost all of the others.   Because of an issue with another student music group (not LSJUMB), the university has heavily cracked down on alumni participation, which helped bolster their numbers in the past.  We are not going to get the number of students needed, but I still want them playing "All Right Now" at our games.  It adds to the student experience, and we want students at the games.  The low numbers is why the band has taken anyone and everyone they can get to practice.  With a smaller population, I'm not surprised that a rebellious scatter band was the student sanctioned approach.
