Message: [QUOTE="Orangetradition44, post: 352787, member: 161"] Im talking about away game / travel attendance. You're illustrating my point. The alumni / locals support hoops. They do not support football. But its the alumni who should play a significant role in travel game attendance... As you point out, away bball is heavily alumni because our alumni live in a 6 hour radius of Syracuse. People are explaining the move to NY/NJ on the grounds that we are reaching out to alumni, and YET Mark is asking more CNYers to come to the game next year, when it was pretty damn clear that a large majority of the FANS that did attend actually travelled from upstate. So in my opinion, the attendance issue was squarely on the alumni... MANY of whom live within 1-hour of the city, not on the locals. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
