whites and the disrespect they have for our country.
Ive got to stop. It gets my dander up.

I don't mind if you post your opinion, but you have to accuse him of being a clansman. What really makes that funny is the fact he is black. Plus a Vietnam veteran who risked his life for this country. For you to have a right to your opinion.
What have you done for our country? I'm guessing you did nothing. Probably even suck on the government teet. But is a guess, just like you guessing that he is a clansman.
DO us all a favor and go back to momma's basement until you can save your pennies for a one way trip to the communist country of you choice.

Your comments would be Cpt. Obvious-worthy in any other dimension than the deluded one we live in now.
Packing oneself into a tiny arena in the middle of the worst pandemic in over a hundred years is a disincentive for those (particularly seniors) without the most robust of health and fitness records. And that's about 95% of the American public. Add in the hit from losing our star coach, hearing that our conference has just been slated for execution, the promotion of an unproven assistant, and finally... a rapidly accelerating losing trend and yeah, it's pretty clear why the building is empty.
No pandemic, and the floor on attendance is around 9k. We used to say that Shocker fans showed up for games no matter what. Well... outside of pandemic/coaching/conference/losing disasters they do.
We will rise again.

Just a few random thoughts that may apply to the current situation.
Who are the good recruits, since McDuffie, who've been here more than two years? Have there even been any other than Dennis and Udeze? It's easy to lose fan interest with constant player turnover.
On that subject, the transfer portal and instant eligibility is going to make roster turnover an every year thing for many schools. Some will lose the end of the bench. Others will lose starters. Between the portal and the money that can be run through NIL deals, college revenue sports, as we've known them, are likely to be changed forever.
There's a real possibility attendance will go down even further when nobody is familiar with the players on the team. One and done seniors aren't going to draw fans unless they're absolute studs, which WSU is not likely to be getting.
It's just my opinion, but I think fans would rather watch a game with a score of 92-86 than a game with a score of 62-58. The shorter shot clock was supposed to raise scores by forcing more possessions. Instead it seems to have done the opposite by allowing defenses to only have to defend for a shorter period of time. In a lot of games I've seen this year, the defenses are ahead of the offenses, The Shox are the most radical example of that I've sennt this year.
Again, it's just my opinion, but I believe the general population has more respect for covid than many of the posters on this board. That's particularly true of older people. Considering the age of many fans I've seen at games, covid could account for maybe 1,000 empty seats. The empty seats and lack of season ticket renewals could drive down the cost of season tickets and free up some seats for a younger group of fans. That could be a good thing.
