Who We Are

We are the only official student section organization at the University of South Dakota.

The Coyote Crazies are a student athletic booster group open to all USD students. The intent of the Crazies' leadership is to improve student engagement in Coyote Athletics and school pride by building a committed student fan base and a game day atmosphere that is made for the students, by the students.

The Coyote Crazies became an official student organization in 2013, but have been cheering on the Coyote Athletics since 1996. There is a $20 membership fee to join.

Throughout the game we will interact with the band and get the crowd hyped up to rally behind the Yotes with an array of hype rituals. For example, we begin each game by playing "We’re Going Hunting" and doing the Yote Sway, and then toward the end of the game, we are jingling our keys to signal for the other team to warm up the bus.

We support all athletics teams and clubs/organizations across campus, including the fine arts.

In addition to these events, the Crazies put on a Meet and Eat with the athletics department each semester as well as One Crazie Night to get students prepared and excited for the upcoming athletic season.
