Message: [QUOTE="Cuse181, post: 4521330, member: 8295"] The point I’m contesting is that Syracuse is forever losing their fanbase, and my response is: the fanbase can be won back very easily [B]because they are the only show in town[/B]. My direct evidence is Syracuse football selling out games/drawing 40K+ crowd when they have success despite 20 years of mediocrity. Building a program in football is far harder than basketball and yet a half built machine was able to sell 48k tickets. What is the argument YOU are trying to make? That losing makes it harder to build back up a program, and it certainly does, but if a winner ever comes back into town, the dome will sell out. [/QUOTE]
