Message: [QUOTE="ctchamps, post: 5160497, member: 37"] I'm talking about non dedicated fans. You want national audiences to turn into games. Not just the dedicated school fans who have season tickets. How many UConn fans is that? 10 - 20 - thousand who are going to the games and are the passionate dedicated fans that are not the average fans. That want to see strong competition but come to this forum when the game should have been a blow out and we win by 4 - 8 points. In our 99 championship year almost all the hype was about Duke and they were blowing out teams game after game. People root for winners. They don't care how that happens. If there is not a succession of years by a dominant team casual fans start to tune out. But give them something that's a sure or almost sure thing and they tune in. It's not like Caitlin Clark had a national audience the first two seasons of her career. [/QUOTE]
