If you'd told me fifteen years ago that in 2022 I'd live in the Syracuse area, have two kids and disposable income, and have no connection to the basketball program...I don't even know. I don't think you could've convinced me that that was possible.

But here we are, after having season tickets for 28 years, traveling to countless away and NCAA games, being an over-the-top fan of the team. That's what this administration's done from my perspective.

To the question in the OP, though, doesn't seem like the AD's hurting for money. Even a Duke home game in a crappy season seems to bring in more revenue than probably 99% of the basketball games ever hosted in the Dome, with once-a-season people shelling out $150 to get into the building. So they're fine without me. But the lost-generation thing does seem like a shame, especially when you consider that college athletics is in large part about cultivating alumni donors and future applicants.
