I had never watched a basketball game growing up but quickly found it fun since we were good when I was in school. The 2003-2004 NCAA tourney run and ensuring campus parties is on par with the best football games. And heckling Chris Paul in the 102-101 GT over Wake game was pretty fun.
But I find it hard to get back into it. I’ve probably attended a dozen or so games as a grad, but we’ve lost most all of them, most by double digits. Heck, I turned down free tickets to this game since I didn’t want to be let down after the excitement from the NCST football game.
What sours my attitude the most is the perception (not sure if this is close to reality), that it’s easier to produce a good basketball team compared to a football team. One NCAA appearance in the past 10+ years as a one and done. I don’t understand why we can’t be competitive or even decent.
