Of the top 10 largest fan bases in the country, only ND, Auburn, and Clemson don't have massive enrollments.

Notre Dame achieves a huge following despite a small alumni base because it is the flagship Catholic school

Auburn and Clemson are in states with no professional sports and lots of sports fans.

None of these exceptions apply to A&M. If A&M was ever going to get one of the largest fan bases in the country, it was going to have to do it through an alumni base. And that alumni base is JUST NOW filling up.

I don't see why this is so hard to understand.

And Bama, so 4 out of the top 10. seems like a small percentage of the top 10 if you ask me

Or do like most every other team and implement a wining tradtion

I am reverting back to my previous question, are you a little "slow"?

Your alumni/enrollment has been bigger than most schools in the SEC and the country for quite sometime. in fact your enrollment 30 years ago tops most of the schools current enrollments. So how is it just now filling up
