PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE
"Entrance cheers" are new cheer formations that are chanted by middle school and high school Stomp and Shake cheerleading squads prior to the beginning of their athletic team's competitive basketball games. 

"Entrance cheers" have distinctive formations. These formations usually consist of the cheerleaders standing in one row facing forward and then equal numbers of these cheerleaders sliding to the right and to the left to form two rows. The cheerleaders chant and perform foot stomping/hand clapping motions while standing in place. At the same time, the members of the basketball team run single file out into the gym down the middle row that was created created between the two rows of cheerleaders. 
The purpose of these cheers is to hype up their school's basketball players right before their competitive basketball game by introducing those players as a group to the crowd attending that game.

I happened to come upon these three video examples of the Bring 'Em Out" entrance cheer that are showcased in this pancocojams post while I was "surfing" YouTube looking for cheer videos. I'm showcasing these particular video examples because I like their creativity. However, I'm sure that there are multiple other videos of the "Bring 'Em Out" entrance cheer" which are also creative.

Examples of "Bring 'Em Out" are also performed by Stomp & Shake cheerleading cheerleaders as sideline cheers and as floor cheers.Examples of "Bring 'Em Out cheers are also performed by mainstreams cheerleader squads and by modified cheerleader squads (i.e. cheerleader squads whose cheers and routines combine elements of mainstream cheerleading and Stomp & Shake cheerleading.).

Please share the words to the "Bring 'Em Out, Coach" that you know in the comment section below. Don't forget to include where (city/state) and when (year) you chanted it or heard this cheer chanted. Also, pleas let us know if the example of "Bring 'Em Out, Coach" that you know was a sideline cheer, a floor cheer or an entrance cheer. Thanks in advance!

DESCRIPTION OF SHOWCASE VIDEO #1 & WORDS TO THIS VERSION
[All of the cheerleaders chant all the words together.]

The cheerleaders stand still facing forward and begin to chant while clapping their hands in time with the beat:
Who.Who.Who.
Uh oooooh
Uh oooooh

The cheerleaders continue to chant while they quickly slide to form two lines facing forward and immediately slide back to one line facing forward :
Who let the Knights out the house

The basketball players begin running single file onto the gym floor.

Who.Who.Who.
Uh oooooh
Uh oooooh

The cheerleaders slide back to two lines facing forward and remain in those lines while chanting the the rest of the cheer. 

Who let the Knights out the house
Who.Who.Who.
Let's play ball.

Except for the beginning words, "Who Who Who", this entire cheer is repeated until all the basketball players have run out onto the gym floor. The cheerleaders then stand in place and wave their arms in the air in the typical cheerleader exhilaration stance.

SHOWCASE VIDEO #2- BRING EM OUT ๐Ÿ“ฃ



@SAGINAWDANCESHOW, Dec 20, 2024

Here's the description of this video and the words to this version of "Bring Em Out Coach":

The cheerleaders stand in one row on the gym floor near a door to the gym and facing forward.
The cheerleaders chant the words to this cheer in unison.  They begin by performing a synchronized percussive (individual) hand clap, swaying side to side to the beat, and chanting "Bring 'em out". (These are the only words to this chant.)

After they say "Bring 'em out" one time, equal numbers of these cheerleaders slide to the right and slide to the left, still facing forward. One at a time, the basketball players run out onto the gym through the middle row that is created in between the two rows of cheerleaders.

The cheerleaders continue chanting "Bring 'em out" while alternating these movements after they say those words. One row raises their arms above their head while doing a  double pop (side to side hip movement) and, at the same time, the other row claps their hands to the beat while swaying to the rhythm of the chant. These actions continue until all of the members of the basketball team enter the gym. At the end of this cheer, the cheerleaders stand in place and wave their arms in the air in the typical cheerleader exhilaration stance.

SHOWCASE VIDEO #3 - ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿงก๐Ÿค BRING EM OUT ๐Ÿ“ฃ

Here's the description of this video and the words to this version of "Bring Em Out Coach":
The video doesn’t start at the beginning of the chant.

The video shows two rows of cheerleaders walking in a single file onto the gym floor chanting while shaking a pom pom in each hand. All of the words to this cheer are chanted in unison.

Words:

You know, I bet you won’t get buck*
I bet you won’t get buck
Bring em out.
The two rows turn to become two parallel lines facing the crowd seated in the gym. 

Bring em out.
Bring em out.
We ready.

The cheerleaders in the parallel line that is closest to the crowd turn their back to the crowd and faces the other line of cheerleaders. The cheerleaders continue waving their pom poms in the air and chanting. When they say "We ready", the basketball players begin running out onto the gym floor through the middle row created between the cheerleaders. The cheerleaders continue chanting.
We ready.
We ready.
We ready.
We ready.
Bring em out.
Bring ‘em out.
Bring em out.
Bring em out.

The row of cheerleaders that had it's back to the crowd turns back to face them. They continue to alternate their moves from shaking their pom poms to shaking their hips to the beat. They also continue chanting:
We ready.
We ready.
We ready.
Now bring em out coach.
On those words, the cheerleaders fold their arms and do a "gangsta pose" meaning "I mean what I say so you better listen to us."

"I bet you won't get buck" means "I bet you don't have the nerve to challenge us (fight us; really compete against us". The phrase "get buck" has its source in the saying "go buck wild" meaning 'go crazy'.

"No Smoke" / "You Don't Want No Smoke" (children's & teens Stomp & Shake cheer with words, information, & comments)".The Addendum to that pancocojams post includes a video of a Stomp & Shake middle school/high school basketball cheer that includes the words "Knuck if you buck".

Stomp & Shake cheers that included the words "no smoke", "knuck if you buck", or "I bet you won't get buck" were widely performed in 2023 and 2024 by middle school and high school Stomp & Shake cheerleader squads.

  1. Anyone documenting video examples of Stomp & Shake cheerleading cannot help but be aware that many of these YouTube video short examples have been published by Saginaw Dance Show.

    Saginaw is a city in Michigan (USA) and is probably the base of operation for Saginaw Dance Show. I can't find any biographic information about Saginaw Dance Show and that person or persons who use that screen name. I assumed that she (or he or they) only published videos of middle and high school stomp and shake cheerleading performances because that's all I've happened upon-until today when I found this video on majorette Hip Hop dancing:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2Z9oAuIv9U published by Saginaw Dance Show, January 30, 2025, @ddc_detroit7074‬ | Field Show | Flint, MI Majorette Dance Competition.

    I was curious if the description for that channel would give some information on Saginaw Dance Show, but it didn't indicate who was Saginaw Dance Show and when the channel started.

    Here's an excerpt from that channel description:
    "Saginaw Dance Show
    896K subscribers, 1.7K videos
    #StandBattle, #DanceShow #Majorette #DanceCompetition #cheer #cheerleading #cheerlife and #MajoretteDanceTeams of Hip Hop & #Majorette!!! We travel & record dancing and cheer competitions.

    Those statistics (as of January 30, 2025 at 4:17 PM EST) are very impressive for a YouTube video provider. Congratulations to Saginaw Dance Show!

    Unfortunately, Saginaw Dance Show doesn't identify the cheerleader squads that are featured in her (his, their) videos and doesn't transcribe the words to those videos. :o(

    However, sometimes commenters identify where those showcased cheerleading squads are from.

    1. I should also note that since late 2024, in response to some viewers' requests (not mine although I concurred with those requests), Saginaw Dance Show has been doing better about writing the words to the cheers that are featured in those videos.

  2. The "Bring 'Em Out, Coach" cheer that is given as Showcase Video#1 in this pancocojams post brings to mine records from three different genres:
    1. The title and words "Bring "Em Out" is from T.I's 2009 Hip Hop record with that name.

    2. The words "Uh oh (with the word or sound ""oh" elongated" is from the 2009 R&B record "Where the Party At ft. Nelly".

    3. The words "Who Let The Knights Out" is an adaptation of the words "Who Let The Dogs Out". The song "Who Let The Dogs Out" is a 2000 hit record by The Baha Boys. The Baha Boys is a Junkanoo music group from the Caribbean nation of the Bahamas.

    The "Knights" who the cheerleaders referred to is probably the name of the high school's mascot/athletic teams.
