It’s one of the reasons we got the MW bid, even with bad to mediocre teams we still do well enough in attendance.
I will actually agree with picks up here, if basketball was averaging 9.5k and football 35k, it would help our athletic budget tremendously and bring us closer to being competitive in the MW. That many fans in the stands means more merch, concession, and ticket revenue and gives Senter an easier path to move on from coaches earlier. Also gives him a chance to offer more competitive salaries.
Winning really would solve a lot of our issues.
