That is one of the main reasons that we are not a more successful program. Don?t get me wrong we have some great fans, but not nearly the number the other SEC schools have outside Vandy. We don?t have a large enough alumni base that cares much about football. A lot of this can be contributed to the fact we have never been good in football for extended periods of time. Also, our school draws more the outdoorsman type student who prefer those type of activities besides going to a football game. We have proven with Mullen we can fill a stadium and be just as great as other fanbases when we have exceptionally good years like 2010 and 2014 and 2017 and the fan base is pulling in the same direction. That has not been the case since Mullen left because our ADs keep making mistake after mistake with their football coaching hires.
