You have to spend money to make money. Look at all of the other SEC home games and then look at ours. I haven't turned on many CFB games outside of maybe a KY game that the stadium wasn't pretty much packed. We played a team from the ACC that many considered to be a contender on a night where we were honoring our national championship team and the stadium may have been 60% full and thats a big maybe. Outside of the student section there were tons of seats open and it looked bad on TV.
Fan support isn't there and we spend zero money on recruiting compared to others in our conference. No surprise that we are getting bottom half of the SEC results. Those complaining should open the pocketbook up and make a donation instead of coming on here and bitching about cheap results when we are a cheap program.
I think it has been said numerous of times that we are EXTREMELY stingy when it comes to spending and we just like to save, save, save... if that is truly the case then why should boosters want to boost more than they do when most of that money is going to go sit in a low interest savings account instead of into boosting our program?
