Message: [QUOTE="xc84, post: 949207, member: 1526"] There is a lag in attendance. You need to build confidence in fans. You do that with wins and fans follow. Marrone's teams did not equate to "winning program". I think a boring offense with lots of wins (and that likely means a good defense) will still bring fans. Fans like to feel good about having spent time watching the game. They feel good when their team wins the game. They feel good when they have confidence that their team can win each game. It took the '87 team to wake up the sleeping fan base but they still waited for a "winning program" before they trusted the program enough to regularly buy tickets. I am not saying winning = capacity crowds. Maybe winning gets them to 95% and the other 5% comes with an exciting team. [/QUOTE]
