Memphis had 4 inches of snow this afternoon, you goof. Do a little research before taking potshots.
However, our attendance has been terrible this year, anyway, due to weariness from 7 years of Pastner, and 1 1/2 years of little hope with Tubby.
But things will pick back up eventually, and Wichita will lose the attendance crown to us, like it was a few years ago.
Fake news!!
Basketball didn't exist till Marshall was hired at WSU, all basketball history begins then.
19 straight years of sucking didn’t give us attendance as bad as Memphis is experiencing this year.
I do hope we lose the attendance crown to Memphis ASAP though. That would only mean good things for the conference. (Speaking about sheer numbers, not % capacity, obviously.)

Just going to hazard a guess Memphis has more entertainment sports options then Wichita might explain some of that. Wichita's loyalty is impressive as well as their travelling numbers.

Yeah, we have something called the Grizzlies, too. And lots of entertainment options.
But when we are good, we outdraw most schools, and when we are great, we outdraw almost everybody but Kentucky.

You don't need the Grizzlies. Music and food will suffice, thank you.
