Interesting that we are having decent student turnouts for basketball given the struggles in football.

Lafayette has never supported the basketball program really well until right after the fall semester. I'm talking Lamar era. I wasn't in the Acadiana era after the death penalty so I cannot speak to the Toney era. The next time I was able to frequent the program was in Marty's second season and since.

Of course there's some exceptions to this, but generally the crowds get much better after spring semester starts.
