A 5 and 1 team and exciting offense...less than 30k actual would be sad.

We had 30K for a noon game. Less than that for a 7:00 game would be a lot worse than sad ...

We are 5 - 1; 2 - 0

 

Night time game, the weather is actually cooler (fall), no hurricanes

 

We play UCONN (old conference foes)

 

Any reason we can't have 40k+ announced?

It's a cyclical effect.  The media doesn't cover USF because there aren't enough fans, the fan base won't grow, because the media doesn't hype the games.

If our fans were more vocal about demanding local coverage, I think we would have more local media hype. We really have a generally apathetic fan base, just look at our season ticket and donation numbers. We need to keep winning and keep creating some hardcore, young fans.

We won't have a low turnout or we won't blame local nightlife? Because I remember that was something people use to blame here.

The night life would be a new one to me...

So WDAE 620 just cancelled the Tom Jones and Rick Stroud morning show and are now replacing it with the nationally syndicated Mike & Mike show. 

I hope this is temporary - bad local media coverage is better than none. 

 

I just heard the news. I actually wanted to hear about the Buc game and was sooo pleasantly surprised to hear Mike n Mike. I hope it was due to poor rating and nothing else 'cause DickJones is just that. we need someone who is pumping us not dumping on us GO BULLS.
