I'm glad he is aiming high. But no, there are nowhere near Wichita today. If you can only draw 1200 people to a game, it is better they are in a facility that seats 1500 than one that seats 9000. IIRC, UMKC was spending over $200,000 to rent the Municipal Auditorium. From what I saw on the WAC-DN, there didn't seem to be any atmosphere or energy in the Muni; they seem to have that now in Swinney.

Hopefully in a 5-10 years of improving teams and improving marketing it will be worth their while to go back to the Muni and have a crowd waiting for them.

PS. Remember the court they had not long ago that had writing in comic sans serif along the ends? That was cringe-worthy. Nothing says "small time" quite like that. A secretary must have designed in a MS Word document.
