Fran Brown Tells All

The dome was empty way before that though?

It was dwindling a little but then it all cratered...next-level down performance and attendance.

Losing is one thing. But how we were losing is another. Your not going to get many fans if they don't think there is any chance of winning. That was primarily because of the QB situation. It should never get to that point and hopefully won't ever again.

Exactly. I doubt it happens again under HCFB

Was it empty against Duke?

In order for HCFB to continue to have the HC in his initials, it cannot happen again. FWIW, I can handle the 5th string QB not being great. I cannot handle the 5th string QB becoming the starter with the starter becoming 5th string,. The starter should just drop down one level and that is it.

The fans will keep coming as long as Fran doesn't quit on the season. Sending out four FR captains against Miami effectively ended the season and signaled tune out.

Eh. that was one of the “better” games down the stretch so maybe the message was heard.

We were a massive Rickie brain fart from going into halftime in a dead heat with a team that played for a national title 2 months later.

No, it was against UNC and Pitt. What bothered me most was how empty the Dome was—it was literally a ghost town. Fans gave up on the season, and that can’t happen again. In 2026, there’s no excuse for that, because I truly believe we’ll at least be bowl-eligible that year.

The Dome was literally empty against BC. It was insane to see on TV.
