Not sure how we can fix anything that is TSA related. I wouldn't expect to get any kind of favors or action from the TSA now that it is a forgone conclusion that we will be ending our lease with them. They don't have any incentive to do anything nice for USF or USF fans anymore. Having a stadium on campus will eliminate this problem because the students can just walk to the games. (or stagger to the games). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever comes, then great. These are your USF die hards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever comes, then great. These are your USF die hards. If they want anyone besides diehard fans to show up the team needs to earn the fans interest back. Last two games have did the complete opposite. Anything short of a win this week against the huskies is setting up for bad attendance for the remaining home games. The last two games and homecoming was so embarrassing it driving away super fans like @FazaUSF. The coaches have to get more creative on offense, the defense needs to get back to the basics they are lost, and please for the love of God show some us you want to play to win again. Looks like the coaches and players were just going through motions for the most part. Show us something and anything to bring back the hope we had for two games.

Mike Stuben Posted October 16, 2023 Group: Member Topic Count: 74 Content Count: 2,468 Reputation: 1,139 Days Won: 19 Joined: 04/08/2012 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Rice was expected. 3 weeks in a row, and it was clearly the least appealing game to students. Day game. Everything set up to have a weak student (and overall) crowd. FAU had the homecoming effect, was a great student crowd. Ever since day 1 in 1997, hundreds of students (if not thousands) tailgate and never go in. I was on a shuttle bus at WKU and listened to one of their fans complain about the same thing when I remarked about all the students tailgating. I don't have any answers, just saying that things haven't changed much. The same issues we battled in the first days of the program we are still battling now.

Guessing it has something to do with bad product + wanting to continue to drink (illegally). Can’t say I blame them. The tailgate has been the best part about USF football games for a number of years now. Put a winner on the field against another brand name school, the students will go inside.

But you are right, the more compelling the game, the more that find their way inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to first get real numbers which seems to be a next to impossible task. Too many shenanigans are played with the announced numbers. With that said I have to imagine USF is top half, even with the state of the team. Metro area, large student body. Mentioned in another thread the other week, UAB has 1/3rd of USFs student population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
