The problem has to do a lot more with the "too-cool-for-school" crowd than anything else. I'm with everyone else, CAC is pointless, and does nothing more than put something on someones resume, but they don't enforce rules or anything like that. Basically they just stand there, and that's all they do (in their reserved seats that they don't deserve), which I know aides an argument that the organization doesn't even need to exist, but it doesn't exactly say that they hinder the students from being rowdy.
In an ideal world, there would be no Cyclone Alley organization, students would show up in full force, and the place would be rowdy all game long. However, the university has the final say, and I'm sure they see absolutely nothing wrong with the group (though they obviously care about the attendance). Additionally, the elimination of cyclone alley is not going to do anything to help get the casual student fans into the action. The sorority girl crowd that only goes because their freshman pledges saved them seats, the "bros" that go in their tanks just to get on the flex-cam, the kids that only dig their face out of their phones when the camera is on them, and the huge number of students who look at the kids who are actually screaming and jumping around as if they are from another planet are not going to give two ***** about whether or not there's a group of students who are supposedly "in charge".
Again, I think CAC is COMPLETELY pointless, and I don't see the purpose of it other than the fact that the university wants it there, but whether or not it exists at all should have absolutely no impact on student attendance or student enthusiasm.
