How many people in that photo even care that we have a football team? 

The purple-hairs and protestors are probably not hard core Mean Green sports fans.

Is being a liberal arts school to blame? 

Part of the issue is management just letting the programs sell themselves.  More investment in marketing to the public and Alums instead of students has always been needed here.

I feel lack of fan support really goes deeper than the current makeup of the student body.   Part of it is not ever having a Medical school, Law school, or Engineering school on the Denton campus.  Grads of those majors earn huge salaries, much more than Education or Arts majors.  Thus they are more likely to give back more to Athletics.

I use to think 'win' and they will come. Sure that helps but there seem to be several factors which don't get addressed and everybody has a opinion. Bottom line is lack of leadership. From the AD to the President and BoR. Left out Morris....I'll give him a break but not the AD.

I'll be at the game but I have Tech season tickets through my father-in-law.  I'll be the lone one on the home side in green.  Plus the game is the day after I get back from Alaska so I'll be ready for some heat to thaw out if it's a day game.

I also received my tickets from a Tech season ticket holder. Glad to know I won't be the only one over there.
