Attendance & Spirit

Really, I just want it to be the band melting our faces instead of the speakers. I bet the speakers are a lot cheaper, though.

It’s our fault for not encouraging our kids, relatives, friends, dogs, cats, etc to attend UH.

Khator wasn’t here during the SWC days but I can bet a number of fans were.

We need to figure our stuff out but I have to object at the Cincy hasn’t been very good recently line. They’re only like 2-3 years removed from their best run in program history. So yah their fan base is pretty engaged. They’re also not bad this year.

I’m with you. And the band is going to be there anyway, so the cost doesn’t really factor in. :slightly_smiling_face:

Playing non-conference games against teams like Grambling aren’t going to offer much from a competitive football standpoint, but those schools bring their bands and that makes an otherwise boring game kind of entertaining. We need more of that and less of the electronic version.

You should not have to “fight” for alumni support.

Where were we 3 years after 2015? That was the year we decided we fire coaches who go 8-5.

For that matter, we had a 12-2 season ourselves three years ago and never crossed 29k in home attendance.

2015 was a nice season for us. But it was a one off. When I say run, I’m talking about a 5 year stretch where they went 53-10 under Fickell, sold out all of their home games, and won three conference titles.

Thats their best stretch in program history. 2-3 years probably isn’t enough for even our little program to fall off from a run like that.

I think it was attitude leading up to the kick. So many things go complain about, all game long. Same offensive failures over and over.

Really odd
we basically had no passing game but both TD’s were on passes. Crazy.

So there I was
complaining left, right & sideways
even on the the last drive
and then we win on the last play.

Was happy for the team, looked like a great celebration they got to have
but me and everyone around was like
‘that was weird’.

I’m betting those of us in this forum have been doing just that. With no result.

You are comparing us to teams that have been in a power conference from the very beginning while we have been wandering in the dessert for 30 years.

True but they have similar characteristics of being in large cities
