It sounds obvious, but [B]what did you think would happen when students facing astronomical tuition bills were asked to pay more to watch less competitive games?[/B] Declining attendance isn’t a sign of moral weakness or a lack of emotional investment, it’s a sign of shifting realities. If I learned anything on college campuses this fall, it’s this: Fans still believe in the gospel of football. They’ll even pay for it. It just has to be worth the cost. [/QUOTE]
