Attendance falling, i.e. an individual fan pulling their financial support, clearly has an effect on the Athletic Department's decision making in my mind and can bring about real change. Losing the "casual fan" is a problem for any athletic team, college or pro. You're kidding yourself. Quote

If UND were to see a drop in season tickets by a significant amount, you honestly don't think the AD would call a meeting and maybe even call some of those former season ticket holders to ask why they didn't renew? Bison06 have you ever heard of a guy names Brian Faison? He was willing to dump over $2 million a year into a women's hockey program that averaged less than 1000 fans per game. I am afraid your logic doesn't work with him. Quote

Took many years and a huge budget cut by the state, but you are correct - no longer the $2 million drain called women's hockey at UND. Really don't think we can thank Faison for that one, though, more a Kennedy decision. Shafer cut baseball, paving the Title IX way for women's hockey to go, but the current state of the Summit may make that an ill-fated decision. Quote

NoDakFan Posted September 19, 2017 Posted September 19, 2017 Holy cow, half of you are not willing to look at Bison06's points - which are very valid- simply because he's a bison fan. That's absolute ignorance. Quote
