Snell calls out Bradley students for not showing up!

[Bravesfan]

Dave Snell just took a shot at the Bradley students for not showing up tonight! He estimates only around 30 showed up for this game. He hopes more show up on Wednesday night at the Reinassance Center. Don't know if he was slightly exaggerating that number, but maybe someone who attended the game can verify that.

I was one of the students who was there, and I was shocked at the low number. 30 seems a little low. I'd estimate around 50 students, but there still weren't that many.

Yes, it was more like 40 and the ones who were there were loud and into the game. But we need more!

They were missing about 80 of us band kids. That's going to make an area look empty.

Kudos to the students who were there -- they do as good of a job as they can be expected but we need the BAND!!!!!

Well glad the band was only out for today. But they still need more than 40 or so non-band students to really get the crowd going. But agreed that the students who were there sounded loud, and the crowd definitely got into the game at several key points.

It was sad to see the small number of students at the game.

I thought the crowd, small as it was, was quite vocal when the action called for it.

Absolutely pathetic! And the Greeks should be ashamed! Come on man! Get your people to the game!

[Buesch N Chips]

Dan DiOrio made a comment over the B.tv feed before the game regarding the attendance. Can't remember the exact words. "Seriously disappointing," maybe.

[Da Coach]

I thought the attendance was good considering the time, and the conflicts with church activities, football, etc.

Maybe somebody can tell us what if anything Bradley is doing to create a competitive atmosphere to encourage the Greek organizations to compete for attendance at games?

I don't like the games being scheduled on Sundays for some of these reasons. Saturday night games rule!

Bradley is trying to get Greek life involved. On Wednesday, which ever Greek chapter has the most people attend the game gets the benefits from the student tickets.

Not trying to put you on the spot, as I am all for BU making the extra effort for student involvement, but is this an incentive that will generate much excitement among the Greek organizations?

All we can do is try. I don't know whether or not his will attract Greek life, since I'm not a member myself, but I've heard some interest from members of Greek life about this idea. Not sure how much it will help, if any. I'm just hoping for the best.
