Football had a lot going against it from this fans prospective. Among other things:
Inferior stadium.
Hassle while tailgaiting - had to buy a pass - not fan friendly - FU didn't make us feel welcome with this one.
Game times competed with big time games - would rather watch Big Ten/SEC or other games.
No history with the team - if the program was around when i was at school, I might have had more of an affinity for it.
I didn't know anything about the recruits - with non-scholarship football, I couldn't say we got a big time caliber player over a Big East program.
Mid Major national championship contenders? - come on guys - conference champs, i'll buy into.

As an "old" alum who attended football games for years
with a fellow alum,enjoyed the spirit evoked by
the players and the crowd.
I would be happy to donate to the Stag football team,
club or not club, to keep football Stagmania alive.
I have fond memories of playing for the club Stags back in
'72. GO STAGS!!!
