Won't put students in the seats until the games actually get good. And yes, there were some good games last year, like JMU, but games like Albany which are labeled with a bullshit title, only to start down 24 less than three minutes into the second quarter drives away most of the very few students who do choose to attend games.
The loss versus New Hampshire had very few students at the game, and once again, most of the few students who went left before half. Hell, even JMU most of the students left before half.
Fixing the onfield play may not lead to a massive uptick in students attending games, but it certainly is a start. The student experience at games is trash. We have low attention spans, it's terrible. And unfortunately going to games is no longer enough to keep most people's attention the entire time. The onfield random events are fun and cute but look at arenas and stadiums for other, bigger schools. They have booths you can walk up to and play mini-games, or sign up for cool raffles. Even upgrading the concessions will be a little bit of a bigger draw. Adding alcohol definitely didn't hurt. Football specifically needs a shake-up all around, from onfield play to around the stadium, in order to get more students interested, and the boosters from walking away (which they have, tons have left and won't give money until Chuck is fired)
