Duke could care less

Duke students couldn't give a shit about games outside of North Carolina and Maryland.

Student attendance has been slipping over the past five years, and when the men's team finished 22-11 last year, more than half the home games were played before empty seats in the student sections.

Even men's coach Mike Krzyzewski is worried by the empty seats.

"So how do we tackle that?" Krzyzewski said.


Cameron Crazies aren't so crazy, huh? They see their team sucking the big stiff one lately. And this season does not look pretty either.

Last year, some Duke games drew as few as 900 students, (Duke senior Roberto) Bazzani said.

"I'm not going to say our record was miserable it wasn't," Bazzani said. "But Duke fans, we've been spoiled a little bit. We expect an Elite Eight every year, a run at an ACC championship.


Can you smell that? *sniff sniff* Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh, misplaced arrogance.

Take us home, Ben Folds...
