What just a couple wins will do...

[tornado]

DePaul was probably only a couple losses away from firing their coach, and of course, interest in DePaul basketball has dwindled over the past few years to almost nothing...

but DePaul just put together a simple, but somewhat unprecedented 3-game winning streak in the Big East - beating a couple decent team...
and suddenly talk of DePaul basketball is lighting up the airwaves...
plus there's record traffic on their message boards and requests for tickets is skyrocketing (they play Villanova at home Saturday)
and their last 2 home games drew well above (1000-3000 over) what they've been averaging...

I don't know, but I think they are on to something....do you think there's a possibility what they're doing could work for us??

It's going to take more than a couple of wins to turn attendance around at BU games. They are going to have to win and win convincingly, to get crowds back. In addition, DePaul has the advantage of having teams like Georgetown, Marquette, Creighton, Butler, Seton Hall, Villanova and etc. We have Evansville, Indiana State, Loyola, Drake. If we had any of the teams DePaul has in their conference come here for a home game, you'd see attendance for that game alone go up by a couple thousand. It boils down to success and schedule.
