Nobody knows UCF basketball exists either, and that's despite you actually winning the past few seasons.

Stadium accessibility? How is that even measured much less relevant.

I liked the College-Basketball Stadium Capacity metric.
This metric was calculated by dividing “Stadium Capacity” by “City Population.”
So, Houston with a population of 2.3 million ranks lower than Storrs with 15 thousand. Perfectly logical, right?

That says a lot about what is wrong with this study. If they understood the way the market of supply and demand works, they would understand that high ticket prices exists because the demand is very high. A very stupid study.

They range from the number of teams per city and the winning percentage of each to stadium capacity and social-media engagement. You can find the results below, followed by a Q&A with a panel of leading college basketball experts. If you disagree with where the data led us, tell us why in the Comments section. Make sure to also check out WalletHub's March Madness Stats & Facts infographic for fun and interesting stats about the matchup.


Not individual programs, the entire city is evaluated.

You can also break them apart by size for a better comparison. Of course that would require you to actually read the article and not just ***** about.the rankings.

What's really sad is that apparently you did read the article and you still posted it over here. 03-lmfao

True, having two division 1 schools in a relative small city helps. Philadelphia benefits from having so many schools stretching its percentages even more than say Houston.

The basketball gazebo needs an update. She's still nice and in great shape but she's twenty years old now and everybody else seems to have a newer edition than us. Have to keep up.
