Yep - always have, always will
Always have - might of lost a couple of hundred students due to the USL lost, that's it
Remember we really didn't start drawing decent crowds until late January - early February last year. Most all our OOC weeknight crowds were well under 1,500 in actual attendance
We are 9-3 headed into the juco - right about where I pegged us to be - I predicted we would get 11 OOC wins - 12 max -
With 10 wins in conference that would put us 21-22 wins and then hopefully pick up 2 more in the tourney for 24 -

The water fountain gets wiser. Continu to give more reasons why Tuesday's crowd was limp (especially students) compared to the previous two Wednesday games. Remember, lots of student meetings are held on Wednesdays.

Main thing it was the week before Christmas and Tech basketball was/is going to play second fiddle to a lot of those activities...
If this game is played last Thursday or Saturday the 28th - I think the crowds is better from the paying customer

Actually - I think if the game is tonite you have a worse crowd than you did last night and on the late start on both the DH's I have attended, by the 2nd half of the men's game the arena was down to the diehards...
Also need a consistent game sequence - Mon, Thurs & Sat or Mon, Wed & Sat - with consistent start times (when tv is not involved) - cuts down on confusion within the fanbase
And as mentioned before - free pizza every game will not be enough to keep the students coming got to do more

I had to be at a high school game...thought game was on Wednesday...Christmas parties/prior commitments in planner. I think all three of those. I hated to miss the game...also have Christmas with family this Sunday so I can't go to that game in funroe. January hopefully gets back to normalcy.
Northwestern State loses 91-84 in OT at #12 Baylor tonight. Tip was at 8:30. Kim's team must've gone first.
