It’s no secret that Miami University students favor other activities over attending a RedHawk football game on a fall Saturday.
Yager Stadium’s average of 15,707 total fans per game last season ranked 115th of 128 NCAA Division I football programs.
In an anecdotal survey of current Miami students by The Miami Student, 56.4 percent of respondents said they did not attend a home game during the 2015 season, and 19.2 percent said they attended one game.
