Well everyone always said winning would but that didn’t work either. Marketing won’t do it either, there is only one way to do it and that’s students. That’s who becomes life long season ticket holders. Until they leave the students alone nothing will change.Quote:

Of course that is just my oppinion sprinkled with projection.
And somehow out of all the college football programs in the country you are the only one to think of this? Well about 3000 were at the spring game so there’s your 30k…let’s see if your theory is correctQuote:

After weeks of spring coverage and knowing spring practice ends with a spring game, I tend to agree.Quote:
