It's been a long while. But KU fans didn't fill up the house for basketball games during the sunset of the Ted Owens era. MU had won 4 consecutive BBall titles and OU and Tubbs were running the Big 8 into the ground in the early to mid 80's. In order to offset that KU fired Owens and hired Larry Brown. It took him 3 years to win the Big 8. They haven't looked back since. |

Just because I didn't look for the thread does not make it untrue. I remember people whining about that. Don't remember if it was the official thread or not, but I do remember that much.

Don't be a dickbag. It's Lzen, it's not like him to pull shit out of his ass. He's not one of those fans.

Hell, I had rival fans asking me if I was gonna go to the border war game. I told them no ****ing way. I am disgusted with what TG has done to this program and I wasn't going to waste my money on watching my team get killed. Why is this so hard to understand? I did the same thing with the Chiefs. Before the 2 games I attended at Arrowhead this year, I hadn't been to a Chiefs game since the Chargers came to town in October of 2006. I refuse to waste my time and money on a crap product. Call it what you will.

You never said what prompted the name change? An affection for Dockers? |

MU's a solid basketball school and that's it. It's not going to sell out games against 'scrimmage' schools, even when well ranked. And In case you haven't noticed, we still have a football season going on as well. That's where the attention of the town is. Your point seems to be that KU is a better basketball school than MU...afterall that's always a Beaker's point, regardless of the conversation. I'd imagine the next time you can't hold your wad, you'll bring this up. But I'm unsure what point you believe you're proving here. Yes, KU has a better BBall program. But given my choice, I'll take our athletic program over yours without thinking twice right now.

I'm honestly surprised that MU isn't filling Paige to the brim. I can understand that it's not a "basketball town" and I don't expect them to come watch and support their mediocre teams, but when your team is #11, I would think that would garner something.

Hilarious how this has magically shifted into a basketball thread. Regardless, ku's lack of fan support was truly pathetic on Saturday. The f'n student section was empty except for the band.
The ku side of Arrowhead is below. Embarrassing to see you send off your seniors like this. |
