WB, I agree with most of what you said, but we will get many of the "Old Alumni" if we win big games and make a national name for ourselves.  They will become bandwagoners.  No they won't donate at the 10000 dollar level, but they will buy season tickets.  They root for the big three because they want to be affiliated with winners, not because they attended the school.  When they see a reason to root for their alma mater, and not be ridiculed for it, they will. I get so embarrassed for people who dress Gator or Seminole and have the crap all over anything and I know that they attended a different college.  I feel sorry for someone so in need of validation that they can't root for their alma mater because they are afraid someone might not approve.
