Regarding this quote:
"But let's not act like they've been getting that kind of fandom since his arrival."

This is not entirely true. Just requires a quick google search. Since, they've been at pinnacle bank Arena, they've consistently been in the top 15 for average annual basketball attendance, despite the program history.

Now, the basketball fan support went from solid to elite under Hoiberg, I'll give you that. And they were getting impatient after year 3, but stuck it through since he showed progress year after year, and was willing to re-work his contract.

Prior to Pinnacle Bank Arena, they would have no problem filling up the devaney center regularly.

Fan support has never been the issue for Nebraska basketball. I lived in Nebraska from 84 to 2000, and 2014 to 2022.

You need to check Ticketmaster, not StubHub. The game was not sold out and upper deck could have been had at face value ($160 or so). And non upper deck could have been had for $300-400. Ticketmaster resale is normally cheaper than the other websites.

If it looked empty for our game, that's because all of the tickets were bought by Nebraska fans and they may not have been in their seats for our game.

That's still $640 before leaving the house. By the time you eat and all that it's min $750. There's tons of other things to do in life vs watching a game you don't expect to win and potentially not be competitive in.

It blows my mind how much people pay for concerts these days. Some versions of live entertainment just don't make sense for the $$$. I get the analytics of charge more vs caring if they all sell. Ticketmaster also was doing variable pricing for these. A mizzou buddy mentioned how the tm fave rose after mizzou got in and slight lowered for day 2

$160 was the minimum for something like this. If you weren't willing to pay $160*4 then you were never going in the first place.

Respectfully I was there in OKC the last time for the miracle and although we were higher seeded we didn't have many more fans present than we did this past weekend

I watched ticket prices Friday and Saturday until noon. Was kicking around idea of going up. Cheapest seats for the session yesterday were about $300 a chair. So $1200 plus the drive for 4 peeps.

Then watched on tv and the lower seats looked very empty. Entire rows empty. And I didn't see those empty seats even offered in SeatGeek.

You've clearly never gone to a game at paycom or any basketball arena. It's not football and not kyke field. You can see fine from the upper deck.

Okay and seat geek must have been much more than Ticketmaster if you don't see anything cheaper than what you claimed. I don't even understand what point you are making.

Okay? So you just have a problem with how much tickets cost at face value? That's not an A&M problem. That's just what they go for. No problem if you don't want to spend the money but I don't think that's why our huge alumni base don't go to the game. No other schools are not showing up bc tickets are too expensive.
