But was it better than a 3v2 mascot game?

yes - the middle to upper school jumprope club was the best part of the RC experience today by far
lol. Forgot about that classic choice this season. It was so ridiculous I must have purged the thought.
Classic foreshadowing too.
Unmistakably there is a significant change. I am sure that the budget has been altered, but I doubt anyone in the AD’s office would speak to it. Thus, I get to write it off as apathy.

So they raised ticket prices, provided an inferior product, and augmented that by making the experience even less engaging. Crikey.
Foundational issue all around.

Apparently real halftime shows do matter to quality basketball and a great 1st half

It was an Australian cattle dog frisbee catching extravaganza.
There was a very skinny women who had three very talented trained dogs. It was quite a show. She had to have been an excellent trainer, because her dogs were outstanding. The dogs did a lot of tricks with frisbees. All for praise and attention.
For the finale, she and two of her dogs were playing jump rope with the third dog. She held two ropes, one in each hand. Two dogs held the two ropes on the other end in their mouths. Together they moved the ropes, so the third dog in the middle jumped both ropes. The ropes were about 25 feet long.
It reminded me of everything my poor hapless Winston cannot do.
It looked like the dogs ate better than she did.

At least we had a nearly full student section tonight. Thank you students!

What do those programs have in common with us? We all stink. Duke and UVA don't seem to have any trouble attracting students to games. I wonder why...

And they looked like they were having fun.

BC has long been a dead place except for the marquee games, and bringing in Cal from the other side of the world in mid-winter won't help that.
Moon and Schmidt should rightfully both be feeling heat, they have the same results (UR has 1.5x the SBU hoops budget though.)
Whether either will is unknown.
Taking individual samples like this is not altogether accurate, as myself and others here are advocating for long-term improvements to the student engagement. When you're bad, by February that engagement will have fallen off, but coming in off a 10-3 OOC there was the same tiny amount of students at UR games, and seemingly little effort to engage them. These are the issues I want addressed. Treat the program like a Cadillac (to borrow a phrase from ole Jer) and not your station car that you don't care about.

So the game yesterday showed that they can muster student interest. Might have been the matchup, day/time, or the promo. Regardless, it demonstrated there isn’t total apathy.
