When I was at Clemson I think half of the floor seats went to students. We sat behind the benches. press was on the other side with season ticket holder seats behind the press. If you want a better basketball program put half the floor sections in the student allocation on a first come first serve pickup for tickets. Nothing takes the air out of enthusiasm as much as sitting in the rafters and looking at empty seats around the floor.

It's nice to want to be better than Valpo, FGC, LaSalle, etc

But right now we aren't even these guys. They're better than us. To say "I don't want to be Cleve St, LaSalle, etc." is fine, but right now, they're ahead of us. So, I'd trade places with FGC right now in a skinny minute.

Have you seen these teams play? They have legitimate talent on the floor. You dont just "get hot at the right time" and run through the NCAA tournament with no talent. These cats can ball. And those callers are right - there is no excuse a school that did not even exist 20 years ago should be able to out recruit Clemson.
