If Memphis is invited to the Pac-12, the Tigers should pack their bags and move on from the AAC
The extra revenue should ease the travel concerns, but everything else I agree with. Unfortunately, in the current landscape, it doesn't even have to make sense. UTSA must have god tier PR folks because their name pops up into these conservations by casuals without a second thought. Their facilities are atrocious, they have no real college game day experience in either football (off-campus aging facility), or basketball (high school gym). Their ratings aren't any better than ours and neither is their attendance. You can be sure as shit that once they start losing again, and they will, the alamo dome will go back to feeling like a dystopian nightmare. Part of me hopes they move to be honest, they will be the doormat of their conference for years to come. -

Improving the Student Game Day Experience
In summary, it is hard to get students to a Saturday football game when 80 percent of the student body is back home in Plano or Frisco on the weekend -

Improving the Student Game Day Experience
I think it's important to remember that 50 percent of students that attend college football games across the country are there for the entertainment and social reasons, not the football... This is tough at a school like UNT due to the "commuteristic" nature that already exists at the school. Theoretically, winning/losing has less of an overall impact than I believe some people believe it has. This is why schools like Nebraska, East Carolina, and Colorado State don't struggle as much with attendance even when their football has been ass throughout the past decade. So in conclusion, the key to getting students in the game isn't necessarily through location OR product. Instead, UNT needs to continue comprehensively improving the social aspects of student life at UNT. THAT breeds school pride, which in return breeds butts in seats. -

Improving the Student Game Day Experience
Fouts was too far for people when I lived in Maple Street Hall. I just think football is not ingrained into the brains of many people who attend UNT, at least not in the way that some might even cheer for the Rangers or the Cowboys or Mavericks.- 1
