[QUOTE="GTcanWINagain, post: 844897, member: 5949"] I will let someone else extract the game-level attendance for the Paul Johnson and Geoff Collins years. While Paul did have some lows in 2012 & 2018, his 2014 success drove a nice rebound about 50K per game in 2015. Unfortunately, Todd Stansbury has been the GT AD with the worse attendance performance in the last 20+ years without counting COVID of course. I do honestly believe that we have to dump some of our FCS games for other P5 FBS teams what people actually want to go watch and TV will televise! 2002 GT FB Home Attendance: AD Dave Braine HC Chan Gailey OC Bill O’Brien DC John Tenuta Chan Gailey - 1st Season *Bobby Dodd Stadium Capacity = 43,719 Marquee Early Wins: Beat Vandy 45-3 & BYU 28-19 to open 2002 with 2 home wins at sold-out BDS after narrow 19-24 loss to Clemson on road. 43,719* – 2002 – Vanderbilt 43,719* – 2002 – BYU 43,719* – 2002 – Wake Forest 42,727* – 2002 – UVA 42,719* – 2002 – Florida State 41,335* – 2002 – Duke —————————————— 43,156* – 2002 – AVG.
