A plea to our "football-only" fans
That TP shot was the loudest I'd ever heard the Pit. -

A plea to our "football-only" fans
I just don't like basketball. I'll go watch the football team in a no-name bowl, because I like football. The folks who keep saying "dump football, we'll be a basketball school" just don't get the level of apathy (or outright antipathy) regarding the bouncy ball sport. And PLEASE don't start crying about attendance at women's basketball games. They're even less entertaining than the men's games. In regards to NIT championships: congrats on being the 69th best team. That's the same level of accomplishment as the Frisco Bowl. -

A plea to our "football-only" fans
Which is why Cal has survived and will probably still survive…people go to games there to see Cal play teams people have heard of or care about. People don’t care about North Texas playing Charlotte or Florida Atlantic or Middle Tennessee or Western Kentucky. They care about SMU, UH, Tech, TCU, Baylor, etc…and those schools want absolutely nothing to do with being in a conference with us. As for Denton and UT having 40k in enrollment, a city with over 100k in population, and a giant metro area to draw from within an hour, ask yourself why they don’t come. Win in hoops? Attendance can’t get to 33% of the Pit. Football is king in Texas and Denton High Schools have awesome programs? But we can’t average 2/3rds capacity and have never sold out a 30k stadium EVER…Denton not caring for our teams isn’t a pity party—it’s the damn truth. And has been forever. -

Part of the problem with basketball attendance is that they are not playing any notable teams at home.- 1
