UC football attendance

Tomorrow night I'll be at the UC - Marshall football game. Previous to the game, I'll be at Martino's signing autographs. Look for the guy wearing a codpiece.

For those who like to beat on the UC attendance figures take note of Miami University's attendance for the first three games of the season.

Marshall 39,830
FIU 40,915
Texas A&M 44,622

This is supposedly a national class team, only five years from playing in a national title game, and this is their attendance?

UC's attendance is woeful to say the least but it's actually common amongst all D-1 schools that share football with a pro team.

Despite the woeful attendance, I think Brian Kelly is bringing a certain energy to the program that's been missing since let's see, 1947.

See you there.
