Default Stop blaming the students for attendance woes

I’m not saying that the current admissions policy isn’t the direction BYU should go in admissions-wise, but I’m just trying to state that I think we’re seeing the affects and results of that policy on not only the level of student participation, but also because those who graduate and never were sports fans never will become one. When you talk to a lot of the fans of BYU that are in their 30s and above, most of them say, just as myself, that given today’s admission standards, they would not have been admitted and would they be the devout fans they are today? That’s the question I’m pondering.

For all the rah-rah folks on these boards, there's apparently a lot of folks sitting in their living rooms that have said "enough!" and "show me first!"

We're not into sports like some people (in the South especially) but that's probably a good thing.
