What? Come on, Man!!!

TCU announced a "crowd" of 4,067 in the Froggies basketball loss to Longwood tonight.
I tuned in and watched the last 10 minutes of the game and counted, at most, a total of 59 people in attendance not counting the band.

However, TCU was behind at halftime by 13 points..... 40-27.... So, half the crowd might have left at the half.

Kind of deflates our 69-61 win some... I'll chalk it up to the fact that it was a rivalry game.....

Two things:

1) Karvier Sheppard was in foul trouble most of the game vs Longwood. Not the case vs. SMU

2) We expected TCU to stay man-to-man against us. After we started out fast against that, TCU switched to zone. LB made the needed adjustments at halftime. Longwood got to see their zone on tape and prepared for both eventualities

Remember TCU counts total tickets sold as "attendance". Which means Season Tickets + Single game tickets sold = TCU Attendance (4,067)

Same as football...they will always count 32,000 (season tickets sold) to their single game tickets. They bring 15k at least to their games which is why they say 47k people were at their football games!
