And in other news, the sun rose today. I'm turning into Stallion, but he's been right on this. You can get fans to games with a Russ-Potts-type promoter. But our ceiling seems to be about the capacity of Ford Stadium. I think you have to go back to Doak Walker to find an exception to that attendance ceiling.

It is not. This is a new world, a new age. Win for real and then you can [deleted] about fans not supporting or showing up.

Now the real test begins. Lose the next 2 and you are back to square 1. SMU needs to win 9+ games and be in contention for the AAC for at least 6-10 years to start growing that fanbase. No flukes will be tolerated, you have to get the alumni that are gone to fall in love with the program and be proud of their team and school as well as get the kids that graduate.

Funny you are still here. No one likes you and I bet you are a troll even in real life. I bet people would love to punch you in the face every time they had a chance and if it wasn't illegal.

Here's a homework project for you. Go out and find out how many teams have won 9+ games and competed for their conference championships every year for the last 10 years. Post your results when you've finished.

Honestly, I would pay to see a fight between the two of you. Potential fund raiser?

Schedule during an unannounced commercial break (so people don't show up late) at a future home game and see if we can increase attendance.

I'll do it. We'll be nice and only box

P.S. my last boxing match I had to wash off my arms and face because my opponent's nose sprung a little leak.
