Attendance VS Texas St.

[CajunVic]

. . . engagement is fine with the 18,000 or so that are interested . . . beyond that, oh well . . .

Truth...The Admin. Has proven that crowds over 18k scare the poop out of them...simple truth is UL can't handle or afford (budget wise) to handle crowds over 18k ish

I might not be at the game. Or at least all of it. My daughter is going to homecoming at Acadiana. And apparently I have to watch her take pictures with some little dork dude she will forget about in 6 weeks before they go off to a dance in a gym. Might go to game and leave at half like everyone else does.

Are we really doing a blackout for a 2:30 kick. That’s stupid.

Just looked. Saturday hi 82!!! Like that. Blackout won’t be as stupid.

I was about to say it'll be a lot easier to get people out to tailgate and to the game with a high of 80 than being in the 90's at a 6pm kickoff

Yes it will. Gimmicks are always stupid.

Disaster averted.

Then again, the decision was made not knowing the temp.

Agreed. Black unis gimmick is dumb no matter what the weather. If we have to wear black, at least get some new ones. The old ones are horrible and an embarrassment, especially on National TV.

We have to understand that we can get 15-20k of actual fans. The students must get into the 4-8k range.

That’s the only way we start seeing larger crowds. This university has stepped on its dick enough times to not have a real substantial base. They don’t seem to care either. We need a seismic shift in our approach to getting people to show up.

Until we can figure how to accomplish that, we will struggle.
