The Southland and McNeese both suck. That’s why all the “good” Texas programs left.

I’d be careful of that elitist attitude. Louisiana softball draws more total fans than Seattle men’s basketball. Using your attitude, no one cares about Redhawk basketball, which, judging all factors may be true.

That said, it’s a good apples to apples comparison as it is an attendance draw that can be calculated and tracked. In the end, you may not like a sport and not care. But someone does. You can minimize it all you want, but different regions have different draws. Tell GCU men’s soccer doesn’t matter. Tell Southern Miss baseball doesn’t matter. Tell Texas St volleyball doesn’t matter (they outdrew Seattle men’s basketball in total attendance and average game attendance one year).

And pull the post where I said it mattered in realignment. You’ll look for a while.

Then don’t bring them up. Obviously, we’re talking mens hoops and football 99% of the time. Ask anyone on here to name anyone associated with the Louisiana softball program. I bet anyone who pays attention to basketball could name at least 1 Seattle player. That’s great others enjoy it. Those sports are not watched on TV, so I am talking about in general. There are a lot more fans like me, than fans like you, who enjoy college sports other than FB and BB.

Nobody here cares about Texas State volleyball attendance. Go back to the Sun Belt board and talk about it. Same goes for Southern Miss baseball. Go to the CUSA or Sun Belt board. Nobody cares.

Couldn’t name one Seattle player. Prolly will next year though, maybe. Couldn’t remember one Seattle player form UTA’s prior stint either. But to be fair, really can only remember a couple of NMSU players from then.

I’m not sure if you’re expecting to have an informed discussion about the SLC or McNeese with a dude who roots for Seattle, but I hope not!

No, but if he wants to spout off about something he knows not, I'll attempt to educate him. After that, it's up to him.
