I mean, seriously, we have like 40+ years of seeing basically the same thing here. What’s been the constant? A university that actively strangled athletics funding for decades. A university that graduates teachers, musicians, and artists, as well as commuters. That’s not exactly an easy group to connect with, much less squeeze real money from. Face it, athletics at big time places are funded by engineering, business, science, and medicine.
Wichita State fan forum...some comments about our upcoming game tomorrow evening....

I'll be interested as to what the spread is. Honestly, I kind of hope they win. I've never had any issues with North Texas and they're definitely a team that can get into the tournament and I'd honestly like to see that. **** Memphis, but I respect North Texas.
North Texas is probably my second favorite AAC team. They defend well and play hard - much like WSU of old. They have an outside shot at getting an at-large if they can manage to essentially win out (the AAC really sucks this year).
Ross Hodge is also a better coach and recruiter than Paul Mills - all while making a few hundred thousand dollars less per season.
Knowing a little about North Texas I feel like we have a much better shot at upsetting a team like Memphis who plays out of control with no discipline. A well coached team with talent should own us at this point.

Over under on actual attendance? Anyone?
I would think maybe a little better since this is a good team. Maybe 5k.
Very much confusing. There has to be a consulting group (?) that would investigate why our students, alums, and locals are not as passionate towards the school and it's athletic teams as we feel they should be. What is missing; what can be done to push them into becoming passionate fans?
