You won’t get an argument from me. It’s not too late for them to fill it.

No. Even if MU was good, I don't think the Rams fanbase would transfer. Some went Chiefs, some went Bears, others scattered and some stopped watching. Basically because of many of the points raised in the OP. There are many other sports diversions.

As long as I can recall there has not been too much passion for the team from anyone who didn't actually attend MU and many times not even from them. My wife has a cousin-in-law who lives in GA who I'm not sure can even read much less have attended the university. His whole finished basement is a Dawg Mecca. He'd miss his kid's birthday before he'd miss watching a GA game.

If MU puts a winner on the field, they will fill the stadium (see 2007, 2008, 2013, 2014). The difference occurs in the down years. The fanbase evaporates unlike some other programs with, I'm assuming, fewer sports to follow. Not saying this is GA because I'm not sure they have down years.
