The thing is, with the recruits they had in the area & northeast kids

wanting to go to South Florida they did not need to cheat.

Shellenberger started bringing guys like Jim Kelly in there, opened up the passing game and they seemed unstoppable. I do think that Mark Richt will improve things, but filling their stadium when it is an hour from campus...is a tough task.

UCLA does a pretty good job at filling their stadium, the Rose Bowl. -- Atlee Hokie 06/30/2017 1:44PM

You are correct they do, but UCLA has almost triple the students & alums -- Stech 06/30/2017 4:32PM

Not winning hasn't helped attendance either. It's kind of amazing in 12 -- hokeyhokie 06/29/2017 09:26AM

The difference in being an urban landlocked.. -- NW Raleigh Hokie 06/28/2017 5:58PM
