Thank You. Just saw it was part of Mr Scholl's letter.

We also want to extend our gratitude for your support of our Men's Basketball program throughout the 2019-20 season. With your help, we averaged 15,145 fans per game, which ranked 15th in the nation in average attendance.

Glad I was a small part of that success.

We've got a good chance to be tied for first next year.

This is impressive when you consider the size of the student body, and there's more UW fans that MU fans in the Greater Milwaukee area.

I have attached 2019 BB attendance by school.  This is from the NCAA's website.

This chart has us at 9th highest average per game.

That chart is from the 2018-19 season.

So is the 15th in attendance for 2020 the average per game?

Would have easily been in the top 10 again if we didn't have such a crappy non-conference schedule. 

Purdue was the only big home, non-conference game we had and that was on a weeknight......only time we ever sold out a weeknight game was against UConn when Dominic James broke his foot.

Yep.
2018-19 was hard to beat. Kansas State and Wisconsin on a Saturday. #12 ranked Buffalo on a Friday. Six of nine conference games fell on the weekend.

obviously this is tickets sold again. I saw some Wisconsin games where the third deck for the student section was completely empty.

I'd like to see rankings based on percentage of capacity.

The top would be loaded with schools that play in small gyms but fill them up every game.

Attendance as a percentage of enrollment would be interesting to see.
