Yes, it is in a smaller city than Cincinnati, but the pockets are deep in their alumni. There are probably as many Dayton fans as Ohio State fans going to their only competitor in town, Wright State University.
I know I'm biased, but if you take out the recent tournament success by Xavier then I don't see how you can think that Xavier is any better than Dayton. Both have great histories, both draw well (although Dayton has, as long as I have been alive, never been outdrawn by Xavier), Dayton owns its market while Xavier draws much lower ratings in Cincinnati than UC. There is a reason why UC gets the higher billing on both teams' flagship station (700 WLW)... when they are playing at the same time XU gets pushed to a lower level station and UC is broadcast on the 50,000 Watt flamethrower.
I agree, you are biased. Only a truly biased fan could put Xavier and Dayton on level ground. But then, mlb is a uc fan so he thinks that a Xavier team that routinely fills the Cintas is outdrawn by uc, whose team not only doesn't fill its own arena, but routinely fails to draw as many fans to its home games as the Muskies do to theirs.
Since you are also biased that means you agree x and dayton are on equal ground per your logic

Roader if your logic skills are a product of a Dayton education, whatever you paid for that education is highway robbery. I suggest you review some of the basic tenets of Boolean algebra, and then rethink your nonsensical post.

Umm, IMO Dayton's actually doing better than Xavier. X has had a major downfall... Dayton, not so much. I think their success of late is about equal.

Well... they did walk into Brian Gregory's new house and beat him. So that is a start.
Paul Hewitt burned the entire program to the ground. Gregory is only 2 years into starting with absolutely *nothing*.

Gregory is a terrible X's and O's coach. He'll do a decent job recruiting but leave a lot desired in terms of improving players and having good gameplans.
