Get the team and coach out in the Community. I see bubba out all the time. Always visiting with people . He sends tweets out all the time.

No more money needed to be spent. Other ways to promote product

They would only get a couple hundred fans in the 80' for WBB. Not sure on exact year as I was young. Less than w. Hockey gets now

No way.

Get the coach and players out in the community. Take a page out of bubba book. Package deals for familys new likable coach

Doesn't mater. As attendance has grown for footbal I have never heard anyone say yeah but many of those are students and they get in for free

Kind of agree, but und is a little diffrerent. How many hockey teams out draw there mbb team? At one point women's bb attendance was less then women's hockey attendance now. Women bb started winning and fans would come for the women's bb game and leave before the mens game. if done right attendance would have grown.

What % if the attendance is paid? None paying attendancecosts virtually nothing. But many purchase food and drink

Unfortunately I don't think it was. Coach should have been given bonuses based on attendance and winning. Don't think he did much to try and build the program

About 6500 I would guess. So over twice as much as the team with the highest attendance. I guess we should have dropped our men's hockey team in the early 90's 3-4k a game wouldn't cut it with you.

I'm interested to know what an acceptable number for attendance number would be

Apples and Oranges.

The post I responded to was “no one came when the twins were here”. Point being it is very close to the amount for M/W Basketball. Basketball has had a lot longer to build their fan base. They missed a giant opportunity to grow the sport at UND during that time. They failed. UND has been ranked toward the top of Women Hockey in Attendance every year. Attendance is not the problem. They are right there with their peers. You can't compare to Men's Hockey. I get sick of the false stuff written about when it comes to Women hockey. Women Hockey charges the same way the Volleyball does. Champions Club, Students and Jr Champion member gets in free. All others pay. Problem is not attendance it is the extremely high costs. For the record, I think UND made the correct move with the sports they dropped. It's just a shame they could not make women’s hockey work. For the record USCHO shows a little greater for attendance.

False. When they were here. Attendance was just as good at both Basketball teams are right now. Averaged about 1500/Game. Problem is the REA seats 12K and seemed empty.

It's a sad day. Hopefull this is the last time we have to hear about sports being cut. In the long run if we are going to be a successful D1 program I'm sure it is for the best, just wish they would have made all the cut this time last year. Rip the band aid off and be done. They have been dragging there feet for too long on this.

I don't really consider UMD to be a rival. They are more like our little brother. We can pick on them, but no one else can. As far as Denver. Things have changed a little bit since their coaching change. A lot of respect for Montgomery. After the tweets he sent last year during the Frozen four I wouldn't mind seeing him get a ring.

I know. That is why they are ahead of Notre Dame. Both Hockey East and Big Ten will claim a Notre Dame Championship.

1. UMD-The hate for UMD is way over the top. I was not that long ago UND played the same way, but we called it tough guy hockey. Ref's call the game correctly it does not get out of hand like it did. 2. Denver-NCHC Love 3. Harvard-by default. Hate everything Hockey East and Big Ten 4 Notre Dame-Hate everything Hockey East and Big Ten. Stole our interlocking ND. Now we have some ugly Dove for a logo.

Do the other olympians get paid year round?

I can't cheer for a hockey east team or Big Ten School over an NCHC school. Luck for the UMD haters I don't have tickets so I'll for cheering from my couch.

I would sayN the Big Ten is to blame. They could have left things the way they were, but had to get greedy and look what happened. Hard to blame a college for creating a hockey team. We want the game to grow Right? NCHC Reg season> WCHA Reg Season

i wonder how the UND Band members fill about the fact that they didn't get the change to go. I love that the administration give the opportunity to a HS band to play on live TV and we had a live band please the school song rather than piped in music. Thought it was a great story.

As much as I HATE the pig ten. Low attendance is bad for the health of the game.

I don't like the idea of having to play them for the 2nd week in a row. If we win Friday don't the idea of a rematch 1 week later, seems to favor the team that lost the week before.
