[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 924155, member: 4572"] 1.28M sounds awfully inflated to me. I know social media isn’t everything, but if you look at our total followers on the GT football and primary GT Athletics accounts on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram it doesn’t add up to 1.28M. Not even close Twitter GT Football - 106.6k GT Athletics - 50.3k Total - 156.9k Facebook GT Football - 84.7k GT Athletics - 91.5k Total - 176.2k Instagram GT Football - 79.3k GT Athletics - 33.1k Total - 112.4k Combined total - 445.5k Now obviously everybody who is a fan of Georgia Tech sports isn’t going to follow them on any kind of social media. But there are also a [B][I]lot[/I][/B] of people who follow more than one of those accounts, and get counted multiple times in the tallies. I personally follow both GT Football and GT Athletics on both IG and Twitter, so I’m getting counted 4 different times. I think the numbers would be close enough to cancel each other out, and say that we have pretty close to 450k fans total. I do think we have a very large of extremely casual and cautious fans, especially around the state of Georgia. People who don’t give money, don’t go to games, and might not even watch games on TV. But they keep up with the outcomes and watch from a very safe distance, never really revealing they’re a GT fan unless we’re really good. If you added up all of those people we [I]might [/I]get close to 1M, but the state of GT athletics right now is holding most of those back from their fandom. The only way to get those folks on board is to win, and continue to win. [/QUOTE]
