Yep - and IMO that is winning some games. That would be a good start toward putting butts in seats. Not just Rice butts, but Harris County butts.

BTW, you have never heard me say either of those two things, either.
Advocating winning at a high level consistently is not taking a path of least resistance. Not sure why you keep throwing them at me.

This is about as good as it gets for a butts in seat schedule. The Bayou Bucket and TSU’s Ocean of Soul band in September. Two October opponents in USM and UNT who deliver butts on the east side. And possibly top, television-worthy November opponents in WKU and LaTech. No excuses (provided we are past Covid) for Karlgaard not to put fans in Rice Stadium this fall.
