All I heard when they joined the league was how good a fanbase they are and how they travel well and were going to swarm Arch Madness in yellow. Yes, they brought more than Belmont, UIC, and Valpo but that is not saying much. Has fan support decreased since leaving the OVC?
I was shocked how small their turnout was. What is going on with that fan base? Evansville fans blew them out of the water, and the Aces were a 10-seed.
I’m willing to give it a “no one can make the Thursday noon game” mulligan as everyone in that slot thru 2 years has drawn flies and I have trouble making that game on-time myself even as an Arch Madness diehard. But they’re out of excuses if they don’t show next year.
It’s easy to show up when you’re winning championships. It’s easy to win championships when you’re in the OVC. But they’re in the MVC now…
