What has changed in a few years? There was no one there when UConn plaued them?
Is this a matter of creative ticket counting?
By the way, UConn averaged $38k for a decade until Pasqualoni happened to us.
They sold 43k season tickets last year for a absolutely terrible team. That is 13k more than you averaged for total attendance and that was just their season tickets. They average 9,500 for WBB, one of the best in the country. 14k for BB. They have great fans.

AMES, Iowa – The “sold out” sign has been hung for 2013 season football tickets at Iowa State.
More than 43,000 football season ticket packages have been sold. The season ticket sellout is unprecedented in Cyclone history.
“We are completely sold out of our season ticket inventory. The only remaining tickets are single-game tickets (except for the Iowa game which sold out late last week) and an end-of-the-year mini-pack from unused inventory of visiting team allotments,” Director of Athletics Jamie Pollard said. “We fully anticipate that our first four home games will all completely sell out and that is unprecedented for our program.”
Sold out student tickets as well.

UConn needs to do the same thing. Get fans and students interested in UConn FB. Get them to come to games and try tog et that attendance up to a respectable 40k at the absolute minimum. ISU does a great job at this even though the FB team gets pretty beat up year after year.
