My god. “No one cares” b/c they can’t win a national championship? Plenty of people care.
Amazingly, it’s the 3rd most supported program at UL. Find another program in the country that can boast that.
I would agree there may be a small decrease in fans since Glasco took over due to the Lotief termination.
A decline in fans is a problem for every sport, not just softball. But yes softball does have an aging base.
And don't you think the present economy should be a direct reflection on attendance? People don't have the discretionary income to be spending on college sports, especially in this town. Unfortunately, that means baseball and softball, which generally have no issues having maxed out crowds, will suffer, regardless of how well they are presently doing. Though I personally have not made every baseball and softball game, I have never missed listening on the radio or watching the website (or stick figures). Though my financial support has weaned, my spiritual support is as strong as ever.
Basketball is another story. I will watch the website and happy when they win, but have not been to a game since 2018, and will not until there is change....
Good point on the economic impact on attendance.
UCLA, arguably the most storied softball program in all of history, DID NOT have their games on the radio the way cajuns do.
We decry being a small market but one could argue their are some advantages.... also their neighbor and conf mate, USC does not even have a team
Join softball's social media. They do a great job of fan engagement. Best at Louisiana!
