Bringbacktitanfootball.com is a website dedicated to the reinstatement of the Cal State Fullerton Football Team to active and competitive status. No matter if the team was winning championships or experiencing a difficult season, many students, alumni and fans were supportive of the program up until its suspension. We believe that reinstating the Cal State Fullerton Football Team will provide a greater sense of pride and cohesiveness among current students, alumni and the community at large in the greater Orange County, California area. One of the main arguments for the suspension of the Cal State Fullerton Football program in 1992 was overall apathy and a lack of fan support. We believe that apathy no longer exists in today's climate. By reading this passage and by visiting this website you have taken a positive step forward towards eventually bringing back the Titan Football program.
Titan TV Producer and Reporter Trevor Rappleye breaks down the history of Titan Football and why it was dismantled. Will we ever hear the name: “Fullerton State Titans” again?
For years former Titan Football players have been organizing their own yearly reunion at local restaurants or before Fullerton College football games. This year the official Titan Football players reunion will be March 7, 2009 and will be held on the campus of Cal State Fullerton. March 7, 2009 is also homecoming for Cal State Fullerton and the defending Big West champion basketball team will take on UC Irvine that night.
This reunion will be different than in years past in that the Cal State Fullerton Athletic Department is planning to co-host the event by opening up Titan Stadium for the reunion. This will be a family-friendly event and all former Titan players, coaches, trainers, equipment managers, film crew, office support staff, cheerleaders, mascots, etc. are invited to attend and encouraged to bring their families.
We ask that former players and coaches update your contact information via the Titan Athletic Club’s website so that you can receive your official invitation. Also, please send your contact information to Danny Pasquil via email, tonga31 [at] yahoo [dot] com.
See you on March 7, 2009. Make sure to save the date.
In an effort to demonstrate support for the return of the Cal State Fullerton Football Team, a number of current CSUF students are planning a pregame tailgate party prior to the Fullerton College Football game on November 15. Fullerton College’s Football Team is hosting Santa Ana College that day and it is homecoming for the Hornets. Many of the Cal State Fullerton students see this game as a way to show support for football in Fullerton and are doing just that by planning this pregame get together.
This tailgate and show of support is not limited to just students. Anyone that supports the return of Cal State Fullerton Football, students, alumni, prospective students, community members, is welcome to attend. Here are the details of the event:
When: Saturday, November 15, 2008
Time: 10 am - 1 pm Tailgate
1 pm - 5 pm Fullerton College vs. Santa Ana College football game
Location: CSUF Parking Lot G between Titan Stadium and Yorba Linda Blvd.
Details: BYO beverages, food, grills, etc.
What to wear: Orange or anything that shows that you support Cal State Fullerton bringing back Titan Football. (A Bring Back Titan Football T-shirt would be the best choice.)
The head coach of the Fullerton Hornets is former Cal State Fullerton player Tim Byrnes so this will be an extra special day for him and other former players. This is a surefire way to show the University and the surrounding community that Titan Football, if it returns, will be supported and will thrive in Orange County. If enough people show up wearing orange or CSUF apparel how can the media nor the university ignore that kind of support?
If you would like more information please visit the event page on Facebook or you can email the organizer of the event, Eloy Lopez. (void819 [at] msn [dot] com)
