It seems to me, the only time the President micromanages is when it comes to disciplining BB players.

PJStar Interview with Bradley AD, Dr. Michael Cross

Your last sentence is correct. The one above it is speculation. Maybe there are fewer people because of the economy. Maybe there were too many Sunday games or whatever. Maybe they raised prices. Or maybe it is people who don't like Jim Les. To say that lower attendance is definitely "unrest" is a stretch. Too many other variables. In fact, is attendance even down?
Attendance IS down. ANYONE that tries to blow smoke up your behind with this ticket sold number is doing you and BU a disservice. There is a problem and instead of burying our head in the stands SOMETHING needs to be done to fix it. As I have said time and time again...Ray Charles could see something ain't right in the river city.
Not only is attendance down but the atmosphere is fast appraoching an all time low. Like many of you I have been going to games for 20 + years and I have to think back to the final years of Albeck to recall it this dead.
That is an undeniable fact.
I may not know X's and O's as well as some but I know crowds and excitment. I LIVE for a full house like the MSU game a few years ago and for the Days of Hawk and our own Jim Les. If anyone missed those days...WOW.
Attendance MAY be down due to a few of the factors that you listed but its just an excuse.... like any "product"....if its REAL good, people will buy it.
The BU "product" just isn't real good right now (and that pains me to say it) and people will use all those other excuses NOT to go.
Mr. Cross needs to see some tapes of what the Arena CAN be like and HAS been in the past. BU has great fans but MANY...WAY to many are staying home and MANY that ARE there are losing steam.
Forum folks need thicker skins! Channel your anger for underachieving coaches who overpromised and underdelivered! :lol:
I have NEVER begrudged JL for his promises...I mean what was he SUPPOSe to say. I envsion a series of 4,5th and 6th place finishes along with NO Valley or Tourney championships. Not even a sniff.....
Now the failure to deliver....THATS another story.

You may be right. Who knows. I'll disagree a little. For the crowds, I would say that the Drake crowd was the first I have seen all year that was flat. Every other time this year, the crowd that was there have done a great job.
