Adding guys mid season

[Roland Brooks]

Filling a brand new $175 million arena that is five games old at a 66% capacity isn't quite the brag you think it is. That is quite frankly embarrassing. Thank god you played Saint John's to get the attendance up. The Johnnies fans showed up to help up your average.

Who is bragging? Comparing it to the Power 4 Big Ten team who hired a good coach… and still can’t get people in the seats believe me I have been there twice.. hard to brag about anything basketball related if you are
comparing it to the Gopher’s.. let’s be honest… NEXT

Yes and if the Gophers were not scared and played UST the U would have there highest attendance of the year by 5K… but they are not smart enough

Related to Jenna Jameson?

There's a name I haven't heard in some time. Looked up her Wikipedia after reading that. It says that she got a bunch of tattoos and found Jesus.

The Euro that Illinois picked up will not play this year. Although technically he could, the plan is for him to practice and get stronger and then play next season. Kind of like a redshirt.

Who is bragging?

Uh, you were bragging. I wasn't claiming anything. Gopher attendance is also no good, but they haven't spent $175 million on a brand new arena only to see less than 2000 people show up in game two, three, and four of the new building's existence.

So they should be selling out? What’s a good number?? 400% increase in season ticket sales from last year.. in the first year of being eligible for the tournament… worse case scenario the have an Athletic department that spends money… a great facility . and a generous donor.. even if they draw 2500 and the Gophers are scared of them…
