This is funny

1) It's never reasonable to point to poor student attendance as contributing to a loss.  

2)  700 is a good number for the limited student seating, just not as good as the number that showed up the Thursday prior for their rivalry game with Arizona.

3)  700, most any place would be highly welcomed.  Even at ASU, who 6-7 years averaged under 50 students.

I missed the part of the tweet where he said the lack of student attendance contributed to the loss.

1% must be acceptable to some as a good turnout.  Doesn't seem so to Hurley.

Hurley: “I thought it was a dreadful environment and our players played exactly the way the crowd performed in that game last night.”

Not sure but have a picture....the student section was full.

I've posted about this student section before.  It's tremendous whether at max capacity or not.  Search 942 Crew and see what ASU did to boost student attendance at Basketball games.  Great story.

This is the lower of two sections for the Arizona-Arizona State game.

The 942 Crew name comes from the approx 942 student seats available.  Whether the number was increased for this game, I do not know.

ASU became relevant with Hurley's recruiting.  The crowd on whole is ALWAYS larger (sold out) for Arizona and not near as much for bottom feeding PAC12 teams like Wash State.  

Still, a coach can't use that as a reason his team got shellacked by a bottom feeder.  And, 700 is 30 times better than it was before the 942 Crew and a number many schools would love to enjoy as a low point of student attendance.  Someone needs to point Mr. Hurley in the direction of a mirror.  There, he'll find where the issue is.

 

Just a huge brain fart for Hurley ..... and in these days of Twitter, you've got to have some sort of filter between down there and your keyboard.

That’s a creative stretch for sure.

Hurley will be pointed in the correct direction, back east where hoops matters.

To even call it hoops west of the Mississippi is a creative stretch.

Nobody creatively stretches more than me ....

Hurley a candidate to replace Coach K when that time comes ...?

[Bausfkid]

Nah, that’s a BIG step up from ASU, but he has the pedigree.

Little chance if he continues to show the same skill set as Orlando Antigua, with an edge in recruiting - means less at Duke.

This has to be fake news.  I was under the impression that every college stadium/arena besides USF was bursting at the seams in regard to attendance.  Next thing you know, someone's going to try to say fans of other college teams complain about things on their fan sites .....
