Temple drew 5700 to Memphis before us on a Thursday night, but then only 2900 last Sunday afternoon, but the NFL Philly Eagles were in town playing. Previous home game was vs Wichita State on Jan 3 drew 3600.
Temple has a long history of being an elite college basketball program, but up and down recently.
My 0.02: There's such a disconnect between our marketing team and the outside world - for a lot of reasons - that most people still don't know about what's going on in FB/MBB/WBB.

Is there a different between tickets claimed and actually scanned/used to attend or does claimed mean they were used? Looking at the seating capacity of the student section (just lower bowl sections 113-116), it looks like there are about 765-775 +/- 10 seats available. I think the pep band is in 112 and whatever they don't take up is additional student seating. Even if every seat in those lower bowl sections was occupied, I don't think you get to 1,000.
