There is a misconception that everyone D1 has turn out. Couldn’t be more false.
Many D2, D3 and NAIA games have much more a fan presence and enthusiasm in the program. I’ve seen it first hand.
D2: NWMSU, Pitt State, FHSU, Henderson and Ouachita are a few away stadiums that I coached against and had amazing crowd turnout.
Do research recruits if this a particular thing you are looking for.
Note: We had 10,000 at our HS game last night. It means something to our community.
I’m old enough to remember being able to turn on the TV and just watch sports without needing 4000 different apps to do so. Just like make it stop. I want to click the on button and just bam, sports right there. Is that too much to ask for? Isn’t technology supposed to make life simpler?
I remember asking my roommate to use his laptop when I first got into coaching.
Living in an apt, we paid $300 each to live in.
I remember asking my friends for a ride because I didn’t have a car in college.
I remember paying a lady $100 a month to pay off her $1000 Mazda she sold me.
So if I ever post nice things I’ve EARNED and it comes off as conceited - it’s because I’m proud of how far I’ve come BY MYSELF.
I hope one day everyone can feel the same sense of being proud as I do about something you’ve built on your own.
