Man, I don't know about you, but this CBI stuff is balls to the wall action. Not only have the games been great, but the crowds have been amazing. I really think the $60k minimum guarantee from each each school is not biting a single program in the ass. Here's some attendance snippets from the linked article: Night One Ohio - 1,169 (won) Old Dominion - 2,036 (won) Virginia - 4,022 (won) Nevada - 4,252 (lost) And I went ahead and looked up the attendance last night, which seems to have improved a little: Bradley - 5,114 (won) Tulsa - 5,365 (won) Washington - 3,227 (lost) UTEP - (N/A) (lost) So there is an outside chance Bradley and Tulsa broke even if they charged over $10 per ticket and everyone else who hosted likely lost money. And hey - I bet everyone will love the travel costs at the end if you get a best of three match up between Old Dominion and Utah.
