The last time I was at a FAU game in Boca in MBB, the attendance was 8 (yes, me plus 7 other people) ..... they started drawing recently. I just don't want anyone who doesn't know them to think they have been filling that building for years. In reality, it has been less than 2 years. 

This just goes to show you (at least in Florida) that it doesn't really matter who you play as long as you win A LOT. The local communities always show up to watch a winner.

Exactly! When USF was playing in one of the best basketball conferences ( Big East)  there were no sell outs. Sure the Uconn & Cuse games had tons of fans but no sell outs.  When USF was winning during the big east days they were playing in Amelie Arena so they probably would of had a sell out that season.

All good, I really think their MBB run is ending, and I am expecting Dusty to switch jobs this off season. 

Dusty? I thought it was Dexter.

Sounds like we sellout in state games more than otherwise.  Maybe it’s the lack of basketball prowess in The Bay.

Well if we go back in a way back machine USF sold out against UNC-C game in the Sun Belt years. USF is selling out the SMU game on Sunday so hopefully the Tulane game is a sell out too. Face it. USF hit a home run hire with CAAR. He is definitely going to be a superstar hoops coach. The question is how long will he stay at USF. I think once USF gets the ACC invite that the chances are better to be able to keep him at USF and have him build a great program imo

Yes unlike football, USF Basketball can corner that market.

Have a little ways to go. Looks like there are around 600 seats left.

wow, that's awesome. A bunch on the secondary market too, but id say we get at least 8500 butts in the seats. You agree?

I would hope that we'd be over that number. We can always offer more to students if the demand is there for them.
