Scripps School of Journalism of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Science Charles D. Thomas II August 2013 © 2013 Charles Thomas II.

THOMAS II has been approved for the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism and the Scripps College of Communication Michael S. Sweeney Professor of Journalism Scott S. Titsworth Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT THOMAS II, CHARLES D., M.S., August 2013, Journalism Making Maniacs: How a Football and Basketball Promotion Campaign Fostered Fan Interest at Southern Methodist University from 1978 to 1981 Shortly after Southern Methodist University hired Russell Potts as athletic director in 1978, he and his staff launched the promotional campaign Mustang Mania with the intent of recapturing a Dallas audience that had lost interest in the university’s football and basketball programs. Through relentless promotion of SMU athletics and the revolutionary use of corporate sponsorships to support the massively scaled campaign, Mustang Mania yielded remarkable results in terms of attendance, media coverage, and fundraising for the athletics department. The following study examines the campaign primarily through print articles and advertisements appearing in The Dallas Morning News from January 1, 1977, to December 31, 1981. Research includes interviews with SMU athletics staff at the time of Mustang Mania, as well as members of the Dallas media during the period of the campaign.
