Willis just said on the radio that coaches are never out schemed its just the kids not exicuting.

South College is a parking lot right now.

I think I've come to the realization that we wil never be consistently high in attendance. There will always be excuses, it's on a school night, LSU is playing at home, we aren't playing anybody, blah blah blah. This city just plain sucks at supporting its sports except baseball and softball.

There was a time not too long ago when Cajuns basketball packed the house consistently.

Is it against NCAA rules to advertise for games or is it just below the athletic department to do so?

I haven't heard a single promo on either the radio or television that has advertised this game, with huge conference title implications to boot. The sad part is, we all had an idea this game would be huge at the beginning of the year. If the athletic department is expecting fans to just find out about the program on their own or through local media, Buckley's above referenced article should be a great gauge of how bad of an idea that is.

Do you really think Cajun fans didn't know about the game?

Do you really think Cajun fans didn't know about the game?

Radio and TV advertising is a thing of the past. DVR eliminates commercials and satellite radio is all national broadcasts. All I know is that every time I opened twitter, facebook, etc., I saw talk about the big game coming on Tuesday night.

It takes more than "fans" to grow a program.

Some people are event driven, but never pick up a sports page, couldn't tell you what ESPN 14.20 was but would go to an "event" on a Tuesday if made aware.
