Unbelievable?

Compared to what?

Carnesecca Arena........and likely any future games to be played there this year. No Uconn, Pitt, Louisville or ND any more! Hopefully our fans show up in force for Nova, Marquette and Georgetown. But 16,000 plus loud fans? I do not think so!

On that note, those of us who remember Syracuse at Alumni Hall - now THAT was unbelievable. You had to shout at the top of your lungs to say something to the person next to you, and even then they couldn't hear you. There was a fan base where there wasn't even 200 Syracuse fans in the house, and only the AD idiots at the time would give them decent seats (I would have stuck them all in the rafters). Now THAT was unbelievable - yesterday was merely encouraging, but I'm glad I was there.
