Great job by twitter man.
After the instability shown today, we (the school) must show stability and commitment publicly, even if we don't mean it. We have to for the recruits.

Orsini:Cited ucf game poor turnout for june's displeasure
It amazes me how much June is worried about attendance. How does he not realize that for the previous 20 years, SMU had the worst program in America.
3 AVERAGE seasons does not bring back a fan base. And complaining about it on twitter, or having your players do it in the campus newspaper, doesn't help a single ounce.

What a baby! Unbelievable. That is an aboslute red herring. Maybe if he showed support for Dallas instead of worrying about helping Hawaii more people might get interested.

He needs to worry less about what's going on in the stands and more about the product on the field....

Or if he was able to produce an explosive, high-powered offense...

That quote about ucf lends credibility to the theory that he stopped caring post-ucf and it rubbed off on the team.

Some of you have simply deluded yourself that our pathetic attendance is not a major barrier in building this program. You can't even have recruits visit a home game without turning them off. Russ Potts' success came before Ron Meyer's success. It is essential that we stop making excuses and have a concrete plan to address this problem. We start out with season attendance 50% below the attendance of the next lowest in the Big East.
