Students were great.
Crowd was woke for such small one.
Shame of our fan base.
.small time fans deserve small time team

You suck at haikus.

If this game is in Hartford, we lose.

Anyway, attendance is a major issue.

Win Saturday, beat Syracuse and attendance will be ok.

That's asking a lot from this team though.

This could be the end of KO if things don't improve fast.

"It's strictly business."

The crowd in Hartford got them past Stony Brook and was twice the size of tonight.

You suck for not attending game

Announced attendance tonight at Gampel

I thought you'd hacked the last 4 digits of a loved one's phone number.

 

[nomar]

The student section was packed and loud and G-d knows they didn't have to be either.

Hats off to the kids. They were loud as hell. I've watched sold out games (where UConn played 10 times better) that were quieter.

Sneak some tequilas in your skirt?

 

[CL82]

But but but all games should be at Gampel. .

The problem is that the games are not accessible for the kids. Perhaps if we moved them to the floor study lounges...

We don't play team basketball, there seems to no plan, bad fundamentals and a general lack of entertaining play. Not to mention the program just looks like people aren't that invested in going all out. Effort is casual and we start games in a funk with regularity. Our fans are used to us being able to run a fast break and that is not happening either. It is hard to watch in general and when you bring in the thought that the team may play like it is their first time on the floor together why would folks want to make the effort?

Honestly it didn't seem that small. The end opposite sudents was empty bit it seemed like 5

Doesn't look that bad to Me

I'm not in CT currently, and I don't go to Gampel games anyway.

Now I understand why they re-did the lighting so that the upper sections aren't visible -- it's slightly less obvious and embarrassing when nobody shows up.

 

[KingAG]

I live in New Haven and Gampel is just too much of a hike on a weekday night

Student section packed tonight

There's more than 3,800 students in Storrs.

Were you really at the game Auggy?

 

[UCDaveD]

Yeah, sorry for living out of state, bro.

Yes. That’s my pic above.
I’ll be there Saturday at XL and Tuesday at MSG too. Because, you know, I’m a UConn basketball fan.

It didn't look like 3800 on TV either.

Not sure the end game - but based on the football games and what they announced - I believe they are now publishing actual PAID attendance.

Clearly they aren't publishing distributed tickets, and clearly they aren't publishing actual attendance.

Only conclusion I can come to is for some reason they have moved to actual paid attendance.

I haven't come up with a single possible motivation yet.

 

[whaler11]

Yes. That’s my pic above.

Oh God - I have a meeting that ends in Hartford at 2:30 on Tuesday and have a 9:00 am meeting on Wednesday. I already have a hangover just thinking about it.

The should let them in free on slow nights. You want students to buy fan seats?

 

[CL82]

Any insights on interaction between KO and the players?

Seriously, a couple of days before we should start selling tickets by section to students a a few bucks more than the normal student rate. I'd like to see us line the sidelines with students the way they do at Cameron.

Yeah it’s gonna be rough. I’m in office next day even earlier.

This will never happen

Et tu @gampelcrazies?

 

[August_West]

Yeah actually . Give me a few . I’m still on way home . I live 70 min from Gampel. Don’t want to type a book with my dad driving.

Was 3 yards from him all night and paid attention

 

[Paesano]

Did you see Calhoun leave during the game? Did you call him a bad fan?

 

[whaler11]

And these poos kids won't take a bus 25 minutes to XL with a water bottle full of Skyy. #sad

 

[RayIsTheGOAT]

Pisses me off when people complain about student attendance.

I am a student, and the student section was packed. We came in at 7 exactly and had to sit nearly at the top row. And it's like that pretty much every Gampel game. The Colgate game, they started denying people entry into the student section because it was overfilled. They had to send students to the general sections, where no one was. So stop with this myth that students dont show up. Look at the student section each game.

How about we talk about the general fans. Barely a soul in the upper sections.

 

[Wordbomar]

Students are not the problem. At gampel, they are the strength and nobody can deny that.
