It's not that Houston isn't "regional", it's that Houston isn't the schools (Michigan, tOSU, Oklahoma, Texas) mentioned in the original question on which I based my answer. When we were playing well in the Big East and had "known" conference teams like WVU, Pitt, etc. coming into The Rent, we drew high 30's and even had sellouts. Imagine if we were in a P5 league with a big-name school or two coming into town every year.
I agree and we certainly need to work on that perception, but trying to sell my non-CFB buddies into coming to an ECU game is going to require more time for the program to right itself and a better sales job from me.
