Another little revelation is that these guys tell you straight up, they read Ragin Pagin.
For whatever reason, the previous admin always denied reading it. We all knew they did, but they wouldn't admit it. I guess they were "above" the malcontents here...
I appreciated them for saying it.
I thought Lee was awesome and very transparent
I was super impressed with his answer about Houston and other big alumni bases. Sent him an email this afternoon to tell him that. We’re already planning some time after the bowl game to discuss strategies for Houston alumni involvement. Good stuff!
Unlike baseball there is no real incentive to buy football season tickets.
When you have a 36k seat stadium and only 16-22k are showing up you don’t need to buy season tickets to guarantee a good seat. If we reduced capacity to 20k next year we’d sell 20k season tickets no problem. There’s a good reason why college and pro teams don’t go overboard on seating capacity. Scarcity sells season tickets. The upcoming renovation will hopefully help take care of this problem.
Also, for the past couple years for they have held sales and promotions where they sold tickets for really cheap to try to get people in the gates. That creates an incentive to not buy season tickets since chances are you’ll get a better deal buying them individually. I noticed this year that they are offering discounts on season tickets right now. Hopefully this is them realizing that they have to flip the script and make attending games cheaper per game if you buy season tickets, not the other way around.
