A couple good articles in the USA Today about student attendance at college football. Interesting quote from an AD where he says the chance of a student who didn't go to games in college becoming a fan at age 40 as one in a million. Definitely a lot of angst among some of the ADs and concern the college football attendance base is aging.
I've asked the question on here multiple times: how much damage is done to each generation of fans if the team doesn't win and draw them into the stadium while they're in college? Can you get someone to make college football gameday part of their life in their 30s & 40s if they quit going once they graduate from KU?
