That's why we went to a bigger arena. If your capacity is close to full with more demand, build a bigger arena. If not, then 10K is still 2/3 of 15K, lol, regardless of capacity percentages.
Slight insecurity alert.
I think you misread every post I make. Not to mention, you can't say 5 words without trying to troll somebody.
I simply stated how I feel about capacity numbers. I felt that way when we had a years long waiting list.
If you want to brag that your capacity is full, but you're at 2/3 of somebody else's actual attendance., then build a bigger barn, lol.
I agree that capacity informs whether you have the ability to draw more folks, but until you actually can, who gives a crap?
The whole conversation about attendance smack is simply to make some posters feel better about their manhood, I suppose.
Bringing your manhood into a discussion that began with the sentence slight insecurity alert?
That's a bold strategy...let's see how it pays off.
LOL. Like I care what you, Fever or the other trolls think about me. Sometimes, you just say such stupid crap that it deserves a pushback with facts or a different perspective. This place would be a lot more tolerable if you guys cut out the junior high dick measuring nonsense and stuck to discussing sports.

Baloney. I don't start anything. I simply respond when somebody else says something ridiculous to me personally, or incorrect about Memphis. You're saying I should just be quiet and not push back? That's even more ridiculous.

You are becoming by far the worse one about jumping in and derailing discussions based on whether the Memphis fan base has suffered some minor slight or criticism. You're literally the poster child for the Memphis fan base.

It will be interesting to see attendance for the Memphis game. The Tiger game is no longer Tulsa's conference Super Bowl. My guess is around 4,000.
USF 4,025 (48%)
Cincy 4,342 (52%)
UConn 3,798 (45%)
Houston 4,023. (48%)

RE: AAC Basketball Conf Game Announced Attendance Rankings (Jan 28, 2019)
Houston's attendance may not seem overly impressive but if that average holds it would be our highest average since 1983-84 when we made the NCG. Our next highest average in that 35 year stretch was a little less than 5,500. This year has been a significant improvement in that department. If you're not a UH fan then you probably won't understand just how exciting of a time it is for us right now!
Edit: Additionally of our five remaining home games we have 2 guaranteed sellouts (UC, Temple) and three games that should sellout (USF, UCF, SMU), so if anything our average should improve a little more.

Think you are giving us too much credit. Losing to Cincy and Ho7ston twice killed the momentum we had started after our Kstate and Ok State wins.
3500ish I think. In the old days Memphis was the only other school who had a good program, now there are more teams with pedigrees in this conference so it makes it one of many big games.
Next year we will probably see a jump when you come to town with your incoming class and possible NBA type players. If Tulsa is good it could be a noticeable one. To some extent though getting back in a conference with WSU has taken away a little with our long history vs the shockers moving them front and center.

Yep. Biggest hypocrite on here.
