    Re: Men's Basketball attendance

    Coyote fans don't care that much about their womens team and I dont care much about the womens team. So don't even bring that up into the discussion. It's obvious that SDSU fans care more about their womens team so give it a rest. USD cares about mens basketball and SDSU cares about womens basketball. It's not either right or wrong it's just how it is.

      Hence USD's Title IX problem.

        SDSU cares about women's basketball, men's basketball and all their athletic teams. Is USD2 cared, maybe they would not have all the problems they have.

          You may want to consider moving to Omaha.  Anyone who truly cares about USD or South Dakota should be ashamed to have you associated with the institution or the state.

          I had forgotten Wayne St. is in the NSIC (even that they were DII). So you split with Bemidji, beat Wayne, and lost to Southwest, 2-2 vs NSIC. My bad.

          How hard was it to decide who to put in that 8th spot? Should have just left it open and given Winona a bye.

          Anyways, good luck to the SD boys in the regional. If I wasn't headed to South Dakota this next week I would consider the short drive east to watch.

            Although I enjoy smacking our friends from Vermillion, I wish then, Northern State's Men, and Augie's Women the best of luck as they enter the D-II playoffs. Go South Dakota schools.


            Go State! ;D

              I agree, hope they all play well and represent SD proudly.

                Don't forget about USD's 82-83 loss to Morningside on 12/5/05 in the Dakota Dome. They drew 832 fans for team that's only 40 miles away.

                By comparison we beat Morningside 80-67 in an exhibition game on 10/31/05 that drew 1,513 fans.

                    While SDSU will have a chance to improve both its attendance and record next year, it will be virtually impossible for any DII team to improve its relevance to 95% of the college basketball world. ;D

                      Oh how the mighty have fallen. Boasting about drawing 1500 fans for the Morningside game. You people probably have 3 or 4 thousand people who live on campus there and yet most don't even bother to walk over to Frost for a game that they probably get into for free. Going to a Jacks game for most students probably ranks behind listening to their Ipods, doing homework, watching tv, drinking beer, and whatever other illicit activities young people do these days.

                        Unfortunately, it's pretty hard to argue against that. I can't say that I made every game ever played while I attended SDSU, but I made better than 95% of them. Getting our student body to show up in large numbers for both football and basketball games should not be that big of a problem, but it always has been. Don't get me wrong, the student body that does show up is usually loud and fun, but the numbers should be easily doubled.

                          I think there is a big push to increase these numbers. The promotions seem geared towards the college students. With single BB games starting at 7 pm there is still plenty of time after the game to study or hit the bar, whichever you prefer.

                            Students don't get in "free." They pay through their activity fee.

                              I think the University did a better job marketing towards the students this year especially the last few games. Remember the majority of our home games were over holidays,president's weekend,spring break etc. The good news is there is opportunity there to increase attendence through the students. I thought the alumni and friends turnout was pretty strong. The split of the mens and womens games was very hard for many fans. What would the attendence be for the NCC teams if they didn't have those doubleheaders? Our women's program is going to continue to be in the upper half of attendence in DI.

                                MAVPOWER's 7th grade education doesn't really allow him to understand anything more than the obvious.
