Agree with 440 and Ramblerguy. Every school has students who will never care. But winning will draw in those who could care. When I started law school at SIU, their football team had been terrible for years. First year “going to the game” meant tailgating outside the stadium all day. Second year, the school tried to push kids to go to the games, and shut down the tailgating at kickoff. Most just went home or to the bars. By my third year, the team was winning a lot, consistently ranked in National polls (1-AA), and kids were magically talking about the team and more started to go to games.
