Has anyone compiled average attendance in a while?

Fun Belt Sports on twitter does this and updates regularly.

And it is downright embarrassing. Only three teams averaging over 4k fans a game and that is tickets sold not butts in seats. With half the league below 2k a game.

Oh I have no doubt App is bringing down the league average. It usually grows as the season goes along. It’s hard to fathom that our football attendance is so elite but basketball attendance sucks.

App is just slightly above the league average of 2,560 with 2,575. Auburn definitely helped with that, but any time one of us gets a P5 to come it helps attendance (JMU's best attended game is still UVA).

And it’s a final in Huntington.
Team 259 out of 362 - 91
Team 187 out of 362 - 85

Coaching matters.

Riley is definitely the most entertaining.

We got Red Panda for halftime Wednesday so we're trying.

The JMU return game will have 5-6k-plus, depending on weather.

Who wants to talk about tennis facilities?

I envy your tennis program. JMU has decent facilities, so hopefully we can bridge the gap soon. But the men just got beat 7-0 by #1 UVA.
