Haven't you heard?

Clemson students are wayyyyyy too busy with all their tests and papers and homework and projects and internships and exams to come out to watch a silly shooty hoops game.
Plus, it's at noon, and they are all wayyyy too hungover and tired from all the partying they did last night
Also, have you been outside? It's wayyyyy too cold to walk all the way down to Littlejohn
And finally, nobody wants to support a team that isn't very good and doesn't have an exciting style of play
Oh wait.....
AGREED, CMON GUYS!

We don't start classes until Wednesday so most kids aren't back yet. Nice try though.

I'm aware of that....

And it's a perfectly valid reason for low-attendance
That being said, do you really believe that there aren't any students already back to campus by now?

Amen to that. Student seats to rest of seats probably make up max 20% of total and maybe 30% of lower level.
Clemson fans are slow to support basketball but lightening quick to critique it.

Clemson blew it when they established the seat equity plan for basketball. It didn't make sense when Littlejohn was never full to begin with. I had season tickets from 1955 forward, supporting the program through some very lean years. Had I renewed my season tickets, my seats would have required me to climb up or down, something I can no longer do and feel safe.

Rick Barns left Clemson. It’s also the number thing opposite coaches use against Clemson in recruiting.
Clemson needs to stop selling season tickets and go 100% general admission.

Drink’in before the game, and then run in 5 minutes before game time, since no beer sales at Clemson games, never mind what the rest of the ACC is doing.

The fans are probably still pi$$ed at the FOOTBALL game that happened on Monday night! Just my .02 cents!

Maybe don’t judge attendance 30 min before the game, especially a noon game.

And it was easily 75% full. Not a lot of students, but that's to be expected during winter break. Great game and a fun one to watch. Go Tigers!

This attitude is a joke.
Our team is 14-1, has won 10 in a row, at the top of the ACC, might be ranked in the Top 20 today.
That’s a team you support, regardless of anything that has happened in the past.
