Or, more likely, he’ll look like a fool for sacrificing a basketball recruiting advantage. UK had led basketball attendance for 21 of the past 22 seasons. Now Rupp has fewer seats than the chicken bucket at UL, the TBA at UT and the Smith Dome at UNC.


You think 3,000 seats in the home venue is going to make or break a recruit's decision? I seriously doubt any incoming recruit knows the capacity of Rupp at all, let alone splitting hairs on how it compares to UL and UNC by a few seats, when they're all basically the same size. This is an absurd thing to get mad about.

At 50% I can see long time ticket holders being upset when told that they have to spread out into the end-zones and upper decks. I can see them all crowding in the lower bowls and between the goal posts “. I’ve had tickets for 30 years and I’m not sitting in the upper deck.” Some will say.
