    When a problem exists there is no better way to solve things than stripping individuals of their freedoms!

    Re-enact the 1 year sit out rule and watch it change for the better. There has to be a balance between the fans, players, and sponsors for the sport to thrive and right now that isn't the case. Fans are going to leave because there's no reason to invest time into rooting for players, which means fewer viewers, which means less NIL money for players.

  2. The thing that sucks about being a fan is there's not much we can do other than donate money and hope enough others do it in order to keep good players here. Unfortunately I don't think that's realistic with the current state of our ahtletics program and that's not because we can't compete, but because NIL is setup to make the rich richer. 

    If Jared Mosely expects fans to continue contributing and buying season tickets then he needs to speak up on behalf of us and shake the heck out of the NCAA tree about how change needs to happen otherwise we are just wasting our money. Anything less than causing an uproar is doing a disservice to fans.

    Maybe all G5 schools need to band together to come up with a plan. Don't schedule P5's and let them them suffer the same fate. Or possibly another strategy. The root of the issue has to be addressed and no strategy isn't a strategy.

    Wish we would’ve connected. I will say, I think the rain played a part in the low attendance for sure. There were a few people from the steering committee but definitely saw some new people too.

    talked with Jared Moseley, seems they’ll continue to do austin- apparently San Antonio’s was terrible a few years ago. Hope to see you at the round rock express game next month.

    We are going to try and go to the Round Rock game. Would be nice to meet up while there.

  4. Overall, I’d say the turnout was ok. Unfortunately, it didn’t look as good as Houston’s. I met some alums that aren’t really involved and tried encouraging them to come around more. 

    I hope the AD continue to work on getting more engagement is Austin and doesn’t abandon this stop in the future. My family had a great time and it’s always great getting some face time with the staff and coaches. 

    On a more football note, I had a one-on-one conversation with Littrell and he was very positive about this upcoming season. He’s going to be more involved in the offense and doing things his way, like his UNC days. He said good things about Aune and Bean as Fine backups and eventual replacements. He doesn’t think the offense will skip a beat from last season.

    Defense sounded more of a question mark but he was excited about some of the younger players. He doesn’t shy away from the fact that this is an area that is more of an unknown. 

    It really does seem like Littrell genuinely enjoy being here, but I really hope we can continue to build up our facilities and fan base to make him want to stay.
