There’s a lot of truth in here.

I’ve been harping on this forever.  Attendance could be a lot worse than it is given our 20 yr history.  That’s a lot of kids growing up not giving a crap about SU FB, that’s a lot of teenagers and 20 year olds that started out as fans and got tired of wasting their time.

My nephew grew up in a SU household and has been to numerous games for BB/FB.  It doesn’t cross his mind to even care in any way, follow, look at how the FB is doing.   I’m trying to raise my 6 yr old daughter as an SU and Bears fan.  Talk about bad parenting.  I mentioned this in the game thread.  We’ve watched every game this year together.  Pitt was a late game so she could stay up late and watch or go to bed.  At halftime she decided to go to bed instead of staying up late.

We have a 20+ yr gap in building and maintaining a fan base.  It’s partially why I believed we needed a coaching change.  We need a consistent winner even if it’s getting to a crappy bowl most years.  Losing 5/6 seasons is just sliding further backwards
