Also, "I'm too busy studying" is what you tell your mom when she asks why you haven't called. It's not something anyone actually believes. Also, also, my final point on the subject, even if you think you are busy now, trust me on this one: You will never, ever have this much free time again FOR THE REST OF YOUR ENTIRE LIFE!!! EVER!* Now, if that doesn't make you want to go shoot yourself, I'll see you at the Nova game. (*You know, unless you are me and land yourself a cushy editing job that allows you to post on message boards all day).

I will accept the unknowing part. ;D
But as a west coaster who regularly braved massive hangovers (not so many of those anymore) to make 9am games out here in sports bars as far from me as Verizon is from campus, well...

There was a recent WPost article about the dismal attendance of ACC basketball games. Even Duke was affected. It doesn't show as much for Duke because Cameron Indoor has such limited seating but the word is the students aren't taking up all of their allotment and as a result non-students can now be found in the student section. Not to excuse the Gtown students but this seems to be a national trend. That is not unexpected considering how basketball (college basketball especially) is increasingly being diminished by the national media as a sport to not be taken seriously until the ever-increasing long football seasons (both college and pro) come to an end.

Is it coincidence that student attendence is down and POTUS hasn't come to any games this year? Do we blame Obama?

i while watch BE games on TV the last month, most of the games had less than normal attendance. Perhaps it is the economy?

If students don't show up for a gray out game they should be expelled

The Nova game is close to a sellout AND a 2:00PM start AND Senior Day. This excessive handwringing is just a bit over the top.

Seems weird to do it at the second to last game. It's a Saturday and a near sellout. Would you rather have 20,000 people honoring our seniors or 10,000? They did the same thing for the women this year. Senior Day was this past Saturday rather than their last home game (Monday afternoon before the ND game).

There will definitely be more than 10,000 in the house on Monday night. That said, I see your point, but still think it's odd.
