Tend to agree. I really like Shafer's energy, passion, and no nonsense style when he's in front of the microphone. I think everyone does. But I don't know that it's a great strategy to fill the Dome by doing speaking events where you point out the reality of SU's challenges to the fanbase. Especially as we move to the ACC and keep hearing about all this money we're getting (that no one knows what we're using it for).
 
It's just not the kind of thing SU fans in the community typically want to hear, no matter how true it is. We're a school with a basketball program that is an "it" program, one of the Top 10 in the country (if not Top 6 or 7).  Hopefully, SU fans are at least realistic enough to accept that SU football isn't that high, but they want to be perceived as Top 25 I would think. This paints us much worse.
 
Need to get people back in that Dome first and foremost.  As we well know, just not the kind of town where everyone is going to go, just because they love the team so much.
