And again, how many students make their way to the Yuengling Center?  With a very good team last year maybe a couple of thousand? For recent years the number is the low hundreds.  Put a crap product on the field and you'll get a 3 - 4 thousand students at football. A good product will draw more.

I pretty much know the back roads around USF area so I will be fine.  Besides i will be tailgating from Friday to Sunday when the OCS opens so traffic congestion won’t be an issue for me. The game are on the weekend and if Gainesville can handle it then USF area can handle it imo

I think to get that number up we will have to see sustained success. A good year here and there is probably not going to be enough

Aren’t student tickets free? We are going to fill the stadium with non paying fans?

Yeah, but those will be great actual attendance numbers so it’s all good! :hippy2:

Trust the  process and we just didnt execute .

Lack of blocking is an example of not executing?   Then YES we failed.

All students have Athletic fees that they pay, so their tickets aren't technically free.

Fair. Happen to know how much that is? Legitimately curious, not a gotcha question.

Think it’s safe to say that broke college kids aren’t the prime demographic the number crunchers are hoping for/counting on.
