If that is a good number, then the last time the average was that bad was 1998 (also a 5 home game season).

See the first quote above. RV has been here since 4/4/2001. The attendance situation today is way worse than when he got here. The average was 14,769 for his first football season.

Craig Helwig sucked as an AD, but he runs loops around RV when it came to getting one decent OOC game at Fouts, usually. We opened seasons in Denton at Fouts, in front of 19K or more (which was HUGE by Fouts standards back then), for games against UNLV, Baylor, and TCU, not to mention Texas Tech at Texas Stadium twice.

Compare that with paying for season tickets at Apogee to watch Portland State, Nicholls State, Texas Southern, and Bethune Cookman.

Come on, @Harry . Removing the average yearly attendance from the title of this thread is pretty damn weak. It isn't an arbitrary number. It's the final average home attendance as announced by the AD.

And it was 13,631 in case anyone who reads this is wondering.

Hey, he managed to con Incarnate Word into coming here, so let's not get too greedy.
