We will average 27,000 with a couple of sell outs and we realize we built the stadium too small. Our attendance has been rising each year despite a losing record, give us some wins and we will be near capacity by next year. Last I heard this thing only seats 28,000, with a total capacity of 32,000.

I would look for somewhere between 23K & 24K average for next season.

There is alot of anticipation about the stadium so I would expect the place to be packed for the Houston opener. That should help the average remain at least above 20K all season.

It will be very disappointing and possibly quite embarrassing if we average anything less than 25K every game and that even includes the one during thanksgiving weekend should we be playing at home. The new stadium should be an attraction and regardless, there will be a lot of optimism. If we have a good year and possibly a bowl game that will be good and even if we have a total failure of a year and Dodge gets the boot, I anticipate RV will make a splash HC move to open up the new stadium and hire someone people are very familiar with like a Franchione or something like that. Just my thoughts.

What he said, plus 1,000 on the average. We will have two near capacity/capacity crowds and average about 22,500 on the other four.

Book it!

I guarantee you the first game will be sold out. Almost anyone and everyone I know, including people who could care less about football, or North texas football for that matter have said they wouldn't miss the first game for the world.

The potential to draw these casual fans in to weekly fans is going to be incredible, and if they don't want to come back for the next home game, there will be another group eager to take their place. I legitimately have not heard one person say they're not going to the first game in FoutsV2.0

same...i have been in denton all summer....the vibe from everyone, students, denton residents, everyone....is that the first game will be a sellout and that everyone is excited to see the stadium.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      Some of you think these professional athletes have to go to classes?

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?
