Message: [QUOTE="BaZZnBOAT, post: 2410227, member: 7724"] I have no problems with Jeff Jacobs saying what he is saying in this article. What I DO have a problem with, however, were his comments regarding UConn Football's attendance issues. Jacobs was essentially putting the blame on the fans, which, personally, I don't think is fair at all. In fact, I think it is incredibly shortsighted of Jacobs to even insinuate that fans are the issue. I get that the attendance could be better, but for a team that hasn't been good in what is now 6 years, ticket sales don't come overnight. Speaking of ticket sales, has Jeff Jacobs bought a ticket to UConn football or basketball in the past twenty years? My guess is no, maybe a ticket or two. I don't see how you should have any input on something like fan attendance when you aren't in the same position as the average fan. [/QUOTE]
