A nasty recession. Soaring gas prices. A team that went from dynasty to disappointing, complete with a coaching controversy that divided the fan base.
There's no shortage of reasons for the empty seat phenomenon that plagued Doak during the last few years. Despite the 10-win success of Jimbo Fisher's first season at the helm, average attendance was the lowest in more than 20 years.
So how long will it be for fans to do their part in "taking back the house"? Let's hope not nearly as long as it took for the attendance slide you see in the graph above.
Comments? Questions? Kudos?
