Do you get woody when you see TMTDM game and they show that TMTDM have larger enrollment than the Universities of Colorado, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Oregon, TCU, Texas Tech and Mr. Ho can go on and on.
While I appreciate the business model, by listing Troy's enrollment at 29,000+, you are only perpetuating the perception that we are the University of Phoenix with sports. Do the students in Vietnam or Addis Ababa even care we are playing Seton Hall tonight? No. They think Seton Hall is a Woody Allen movie.
Here is a thought: Start charging an activity fee for EACH of those students - like every other school does. The University of Oklahoma charges it's students a minimum of $259 - it goes up for Grad School and Law school students, but let's just for fun say we charge $100 for the whole year for everybody that is 'enrolled' at Troy. That's $2.9 million per year. $150 per student per year, that's $4.35 million. And let's just say we use EVERY bit of that on athletic facilities. Mr. Ho no math major but that could finance something big.
Until we (the ones that actually care-including several that went to TSU-Miscellaneous) see a significant increase in student activity fees or contribution from participating countries(like the Chinese donating $1 billion dollars - heck rename the stadium 鳳凰城大學與體育 Stadium), please zip up your pants and stop claiming we are a monster school

I'm tired of hearing " those students can't take advantage of games on campus." BS, buy a plane ticket or transfer to the University of Ping Pong! JUST DO IT!

If your degree says "Troy University", then that includes the Troy campus that fields all of the athletic teams no matter what shoe repair store your campus resides over
