JESS SAID IT BEST - THE PROBLEM WITH CHA

What is the root cause?

Location - Nope. There are numerous arenas on the edge of campus that fill up and are electric. Hilton Col. comes to mind.

Student seating isn't very good - Nope. Look at where students sit at Mackey.

Food sucks - Nope. Not enough food stations. Doesn't help but that's not it.

Younger families spend there money on other entertainment - A contributor

TV coverage is available for all games and start times aren't always conducive to attending - A contributor

Climate change - has to be a part of the problem, everything negative that happens today is because of climate change.

Men's basketball has lost it's lustre - Ah, a Big part of it. When the Hawks use to win and were true contenders, CHA was filled. If you win, they will come.

For me at almost 6' 5", the seats aren't as comfortable as my recliner and an 85" screen.
Yep aisle seat at Kinnick and Carver or it's home.
 
The problem is the same as it ever was.

Eastern Iowa fans (here’s looking at you specifically Iowa City & Cedar Rapids).

Just not enough $$$ & population to support like ISU has for b-ball.

There’s no Dallas County about to pop up out there to bail them out. 🤬
