How does any of this surprise anyone...it needs to fixed, but does anyone at UL care? Other than the FB teams performance, is there anything Ragin or Cajun about a game at CF?

For every problem there is always a solution.
Make the solution a positive experience.
It looks increasingly more and more like the answer to does anywhere care is no. There is one simple way to find out what has driven people away, whether it be factors like Covid or gameday experience issues.
We all know people at this point who have stopped attending games, stopped donating, or drastically slashed donations. The university and RCAF still have these peoples' numbers. That is what leads me to believe no one cares. It's been pointed out here a number of times by those who stopped giving: no one ever called them to ask why. We have the contact information for past donors at our fingertips, and we're either too lazy or too scared to call.
There also needs to be a game to game walk up ticket push. Don't stop at the season tickets. We generally do OK in Game 1, homecoming, and if there happens to be a big game as far as the record goes. Those other three games we generally struggle. The military appreciation game day support has been disappointing in recent years. Find out why that is as well as the youth day turnout. I would work with the youth organizations in town to minimize soccer/other youth sports on those days. Have all that end by three PM for five Saturdays. Push more for Sunday activities on those weekends. Lots of things can be done but the season ticket push is only part of it. You need to work throughout the season to increase support. Of course the team can't have three game losing streaks in September for that to be effective. Maybe the end of the year improvement on offense continues into next season
I hope the administration doesn't get a false sense of accomplishment due to diamond sports attendance. They should be in the top 10-15 again this year.
Its going to take a multi-faceted campaign next year to bolster attendance, adapting alot of suggestion made here. A real all out commitment by administration. Hope so. We'll see.
We can’t get this administration to handle football season ticket sales, yet we want them to manage a $65 million construction project? I’m worried about that failing
One thing all retailers know. It’s much easier to get a new customer than to get one to give you a second chance once burned. UL has been burning fans for decades. This is nothing new. People told me decades ago that you gotta work to be a Cajun fan.
