I went to the Big XII championship game, and there weren't many Kansas fans there. In fact, it was filled with black and gold.

Fascinating stuff. Royals fans are the best in baseball because there will be more of them in attendance at the All Star game this year than any other fan base.

So proximity and success impacts attendance of a fan base? Correlation something something something causation...

A neutral site game between KU and MU will always have more KU fans at it. There are more KU fans in the world than MU fans. Not talking about alumni, just fans that follow the schools they see as noteworthy. KU is a famous college basketball school, MU is not. |

To go back to the baseball analogy, do you think all the Yankee fans that magically show up at Kauffman stadium grew up in New York? How'd they become Yankee fans? KU would have the most fans at the tournament if it were in Texas, or Iowa, or Alaska. |

Looks like MU actually wanted to have TAMU as their permanent cross-division rival, but acquiesced to Arkansas because it'd be "better for the league." Alden is talking about a need to schedule noncon games with Texas schools to keep MU's Texas footprint active.

Wait, so the Big 12 isn't going to hold its basketball tournament in Wichita or Des Moines?
Shocking. |

Yeah, anytime the Big 12 wants to host sporting events in KC, MO, it is fine with me.
