pathetic attendance tonight

[Mu2323]

Honestly there must be 500 people here. I get that it's non conference but comon.

[warriorchick]

First game I have missed when I was within driving distance.

Just didn't think Stetson was worth getting home at midnight. Would've gone if it was a 7:00 start.

[rocky_warrior]

Kinda expected that.  3-5 in big east, late mid-week non conference game against a sub-par opponent.

[GGGG]

Marquette is getting what they deserve.

Sure sign of gettin' old, hey?

What?

[GGGG]

What?

They are getting the dinky crowd they deserve for scheduling this game.

Was it really that difficult to comprehend?

[KenoshaWarrior]

If they are going to schedule this game at least make it a 6:00 affair

[brewcity77]

There's definitely a few thousand here. People underestimate how big the BC is. But it's not good. One of the worst attended games I've seen in years. Student Section is maybe 25% full in the lower bowl and about a dozen students upstairs.

* the announcers even talked about it....scheduling a super cupcake in the middle of conference play for a young team provides a) a breather. b) different combinations to work together and run different sets, and c) some confidence.

Ideal from a purest POV? no.  Totally understandable for this team? Absolutely.

I'll get off your lawn now.

[BM1090]

Lol at 500. At least 5K and probably a few K more.

[CountryRoads]

Exactly.

[KampusFoods]

I don't even wanna watch at home let alone trek out to the game

Yep. Fans giving this game a thumbs down. It's a pathetic crowd for a pathetic game.

[Warrior of Law]

I know a lot of ticket holders who elected to eat tickets.  Looks like the Western Michigan NIT game. Program seems about as dead as it did back then.

NJIT last year on that snowy Monday at 8pm was small.

[chapman]

The team hasn't been exciting, they've played even worse at home, they already had the worst non-conference schedule of any major conference team before tonight's lame-o opponent, and it's a late start in the middle of the week.  There's a few things that can be doing to correct this, and one magic thing that's said to solve everything.

[Bricky]

After the loss to DePaul, Scoop was hoping no one would show up to the Stetson game. No one shows up to the Stetson game and Scoop complains about the low attendance.

[connie]

Couldn't give my tix away for this one.

  this would have been a good time to schedule UWM or UWGB.  not saying either are cupcakes.  both would have drawn a little better and maybe even provide for a little more competition even though stetson made the game a little more competitive than they should have-thank you JJ

and i know this has been discussed many times here (UWM/UWGB) just saying though.  i also realize this was probably a game scheduled a few years ago, but still...perfect time for a local cupcake

I had the same thought but you're locked into finding a Non Conf team that also has a bye that same week.  UWM plays Monday & Friday.  Still, it's a horrible scheduling decision.  Wojo might like it, and that's his right but as a dept you just have to accept that you're probably not getting anyone to show up.

What?  I don't buy tickets so I don't care one bit. 

[jsglow]

Pretty sure that Marquette understood from day 1 that this would be very poorly attended. And I'm confident that the 8p start was entirely TV driven. Unfortunately, being one of the western schools in the BEast it'll be the norm.

Yep.  If FS1 continues showing 6pm/8pm double headers, we will be at 8pm more often than not.

posting "getting what they deserve" implies a level of caring.  conversely, not posting would imply not caring one bit.
