So having a larger Spring Game attendance builds LSU's image in your eyes?
Not my eyes. But in the eyes of recruits & future regular students, yes.
How we old alums/fans feel doesn't matter, in the grand scheme of things. But how youth perceives our school & athletics program is what matters. We stop concentrating on what matters to them & we will lose out in the long run.
Case in point: LSU Admissions office is reporting a 32% drop in out of state applications for February & March 2016 compared to the same 2 months in 2015.
In state apps are down 28% over the same time period.
All of this on the heels of the state budget crisis/TOPS nonsense & the Miles fiasco.

I have never once heard a recruit say he chose or did not choose a school because of the number of people at the spring game.

I'm from out of state, and I assure you, spring game attendance had absolutely zero effect on my decision. What I knew of LSU athletics before attending, I knew from watching real games on national TV, on the biggest stages. Not from scrimmages.
