All you need to do is look at attendance. Google NCAA attendance and you can get numbers back to 1998 without even trying to look. BYU had the best home games they have had in the last 30 years (save the Miami game) from 1999-2005 and only one year did they average a sellout 1999. It is about putting buts in the seats and getting the donations. Winning does that attendance in the late 70's and early 80's with horrendous home schedules was so much that they had to expand. Attendance in the late 90's and early 2000's with great home schedules was horrible.
To be honest, I don't expect you to care. I guess I just should have said I know two people who were treated better, but that might have suggested I was questioning you too. I don't know your individual circumstance, so let's just leave it there.

Let's just say my experience is that with the people I know who have paid in some good money to the program are hoping the schedules get better, not dummied down.
