Message: [QUOTE="Dr. Bill, post: 1199538, member: 5045"] What too many of our fans don't want to admit is that our product is not as attractive to top prospects as some of the schools we compete against. I was at the Clemson game, talked with some former players, asked them what made them pick Clemson. One of the themes was "dude", look around ! 80 thousand fans at the game, some of whom pay 10 thousand dollars a season to park in the lots near the stadium for tailgating. The fans are willing to pat a $1,000 athletic fee above the price of their season ticket's to support the team. The other responses: Girls..lots of girls who love football! Now, if we are going to win recruiting wars against them,we have to improve our product, and that starts with financial support from the community. [/QUOTE]
