Attendance Woes around the NCAA

Texas vs. UCLA in Houston, playing in front of 2,000 people: I think it has to do with a bunch of things like the economy, both of those teams not being very good this year, thus far. And the fact that a lot of fans are probably cash strapped after football season. Football tickets aren't cheap... Wichita State not selling out games: Nose bleed seats costing $50 a ticket probably has something to do with this... I remember before WSU won the NIT nose bleed seats were priced at $30. KSU's basketball crowd being sparse: This whole situation is like an ugly divorce and their fans aren't supporting Bruce Weber.

Obama's economy have people rethinking entertainment dollars and college basketball is not exempt. WSU has raised more SASO money this year than ever before, so overall, we are very lucky to have such a supportive fan base.
