Oklahoma State also had poor attendance at their NIT game last night. (Both home teams lost.)

I watched the 2nd half of that game....wow, I've complained about our crowds sometimes being laid back, but good lord, that WAS embarrassing. They got a steal late in the game with a chance at the end and what little crowd was there was all sitting down. I literally couldn't spot one person standing. That was insane. It was honestly kind of bizarre how dead it was.

Somebody should've gave coach a chill pill and told him to count to 10 before taking the mic. You don't make many friends calling out fans when you lose at home in the quarterfinals of the NIT.

well, Altman has gotten them to a Final Four before. The lack of support is odd...

Yeah, this is what they call an “own goal” here in the UK (i.e., accidentally scoring a goal at the wrong end, a la Roy Riegels). It reminds me of the time when Metallica sued a bunch of their own fans for downloading their songs off of Napster. Y’know… Sometimes you just gotta let it go.

Ducks fans stayed at home so they wouldn't have to look at their gym's floor, which is heinous. Jackson Pollack must be rolling over in his grave...

He's willing to coach juco ball?

He'll get to coach in front of 50 fans instead of 3500. Hypocrite much.

Oregon has turned in a very football oriented school and yes, the court looks hideous.

Had never seen their floor before. Barf (almost literally). Surprised the league hasn't stepped in ; would hate to officiate on this mess.
