Does anyone know if the same school has went winless in mens and women's basketball in
the MVC.Im sure the women's team won't win a game.But the mens team has been more competitive.
Km taking about Evansville

Considering Drake is the only team in the last 25 years to go 0-18 (1997-1998 season I believe), I doubt that it has happened for both the men and women, as going 0-18 just does not happen.

In the 117 year history of the MVC there have been 19 winless in conference play seasons

Should UE pull the feat off this year it will be the first time in history we've had 2 winless teams in one season, which of course means it's the first time it was the same school to have both.

They wouldn't be the first to have the men's and women's teams to have winless seasons though - SIU has accomplished that.

The level of uncharted/historic/never to be repeated/whatever you want to call it is unfathomable to be honest.

In spite of the winless MVC season, the Aces are still drawing more fans than every team in the conference except Bradley. Something is wrong with this picture.

Loyola only seats 4,486 compared to Evansville 8,930, so it's expected. It's a similar comparison with Valpo too, I can't explain the other schools in the Valley though.

[Drakey]

I don't think seating capacity is that big a factor on attendance unless some team is averaging way above another teams total capacity or if the average is raised by a couple sellouts. Loyola should be at or near capacity every game. UNI should be averaging over 6000. I'm not sure anybody else has the resume to create much fan interest at this point. Evansville really had a chance to build some support until their coach screwed that up.

I've watched your home games

What's wrong is how your your admin is reporting attendance.

This.

Attendance numbers are never perfect but those are laughable.

You'll have a couple opportunities for wins when Indiana State and Illinois State come to town. The Redbirds surprisingly had a really good game at home against the Trees and play abysmal on the road.

[Dean Wormer]

All the conference teams are using tickets sold from what I understand. To say the Ford Center is about 40% full isn't too far off the mark. The lower bowl full is 6K, and the end zones are the last tickets sold.

The only thing laughable is how they, along with most of the league continue to outdraw the first place team.
