    People have said this before, and maybe I'm just horrible with math, but I'm not seeing this add up. I've heard that the chairbacks seat around 5,000 or a little more. Why do our attendance numbers not match that then? Our attendance hovered around 4,000-5,000 all year and that's with people sitting in the student section and behind the north basket. If all the chairbacks were sold, why did our attendance numbers not show it? Or do they? Where am I off?

      FYI their are only 3,200 chair backs.

        That would be where I was off then. Thanks for clearing that up.

          Wrong...A vast majority of the seat backs were sold/claimed by corporate sponsors or season ticket holders, they were never used.

            I think you need to re-read the post.
            If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game. And watched Northern Iowa play Cornell in the Poulan Weedeater Bowl. ~ Dwight Perry The Seattle Times

              Touche. I did indeed misread it.
