Agreed that Drexel and the CAA has to earn people's time and money and that has not happened. Absolutely agree we all have choices on what to do and how to do it. I also don't disagree on your choice of which to go to. I was not trying to call you guys out as much as making a point. I think we all agree the conference is not as interesting as it used to be and nobody is doing anything about it, which only negatively effects everyone. I have always argued that local games with that supposed interest was a bunch of malarkey. Local games will interest some but it has to go beyond that. Same with the conference games. Spread out without any large interesting fan bases hurts the whole product. I could totally see UNCW and CofC finding another home that fits them better. The conference definitely has an identity problem and nobody seems to care at the CAA offices.

Hiroshima, you have been around a long time and been way patient like most of us. We all want a competitive product. That was not what I was meaning in talking about front running fans. I was making the comment as a general one about the fans that go to Drexel, but Philly in general. When that team was good it was awesome, but when the going gets tough, there is nobody(few) around. So my comments there have to do with Philly in general. With so many options, front running or fair weather fans are everywhere, from the time spent in Philly, it is quite obvious its a common theme. Sure the eagles have die hard fans, but the championship season or when the Phillies won, the whole city changed and its unreal how many "fans" showed up. That was just something I noticed as a non-Philly person who went there for 5 years. If "team A" isnt doing so well they focus on another team until one is good. Building a brand helps to avoid that issue (although you will always gain fans during wins and lose those fans with losses).

With that said, of course its easier to follow a winner. Our women deserve every bit of following they have and some. I really hope for the program, for Denise, for Bailey they get that chance to dance. I hope they finish strong and dont have any let downs. I know for a fact if they make it, I will be there regardless of where they send them.
