Schools that can draw around 10,000 a game. Last year Cocks were #26 and pulling just under 4K per game. To be a destination job 8K is a safer spot. The question is if the Cocks can average 8K per game?


Anything like that would be breaking new ground. I mean we had a few fantastic years with incredible attendance numbers at SCAR back in the late 70s, but those days are long gone.

Whatever happens now, happens because Staley made it happen, because she broke new ground and established something of her own. If anyone can raise the attendance figures at SCAR for WBK, that woman can - she is something special.

Not worried about Dawn, the question is if the fans will turn the corner. The bigger question if if they can get numbers when it comes to donors? Lowers for the Vols run I think 250 - 350 per seat but the kicker is the 1,000 donation every year per seat for the right to buy them. It really is becoming a money grab, and some schools are already ahead.

The question is as the prices rise, will the fans keep paying?
