Nice to see the Cyclones had attendance of over 13,000 for Green Bay. Heard on KXNO that attendance was around 7500 for last night's Iowa game.
Cyclone MBB Attendance
- Thread starter urb1
- Start date
Like the dude doing homework and eating pizza. Quiet place to study, better than the library per his thoughts.
We didn't have 13,000 actually in Hilton Monday, maybe 10k or a little less if I had to guess. Still was a decent crowd for the 1st game of the year though.
People bought tickets, walked in and realized it was a men's game, not a women's game. Disappointed they wouldn't be watching Caitlin, most left before tipoff
holy ****. i knew they were struggling to get fans but that is incredibly pathetic. i love the responses to that tweet saying it was a Tuesday night game etc so of course it's empty and Mike shot back saying other schools had sellouts.
I still don't understand why Fran can't land recruits. Who wouldn't sign up to play in front of dozens of people while having your coach and his wife scream at the refs and the team the entire night?
He could have simply pointed out the Iowa WBB attendance on a Monday night versus a cupcake. Not like Iowa Hawkeye fans won't show up if you field a good team that is fun to watch.
The closest thing Fran has to star power is his son dating Caitlin Clark and I don't think that's a draw for MBB.
That ruins their declared narrative they're one of the best fanbases in the country.
They are obsessed with the public perception, and if the perception points the fans in a negative way, they will defend it to no end. Image is just as important as winning in their eyes
if only recruits cared about attendance as much as fans - we'd crush it every year.
Both TX and Baylor built new arenas to REDUCE capacity!

Can't imagine going to the sinkhole to watch Fran ball and apparently neither can anyone else.
Both TX and Baylor should have high NIL deals which would overrule attendance. Baylor also has a coach who won a national title and very successful teams.
The new 5,000 seat arena will solve all issues, making a ticket a tough(er) get (if the pizza is still included).
That's exactly what a total lack of postseason success will get you. Thanks Fran!
