attendance smack from a school with nearly 40k undergrads and has never had a single sellout....

You guys have had teams like Texas Tech, Texas A$M, Baylor, Okie State and heck TCU every other year.  It's not a fair comparison.   The best team we have ever had at home is Cal, Indiana and Houston?

I know he’s an SMU fan, but he’s not wrong on this. We should really avoid attendance smack.

When you bring in Tech, TCU, A&M, and sometimes Baylor you're going to have good attendance.

A lot of us don't forget the SMU days of pre-June Jones. Getting a ticket for an SMU game was like going to the fireworks stand - buy 1 get 5 free.

UNT has 5x the undergrads and they can't be bothered to walk across campus to watch a football game at a really nice and still new stadium.  Says a lot doesn't it.

And we had a national televised game on a Thursday after Dan McCarney got fired.

We can keep making this excuse until we are blue in the face and our conference mates will keep outdrawing us for games.

Get those four teams in to our stadium (DATCU?) and see what our attendance would be.
