As a Double Domer and parent of two current Notre Dame students, I think I have spent enough time (and money) on campus to ask this question - how can it be that only 2500 people attended the NIT game? Was that a misprint? At the risk of being labeled an old-timer, we used to have students hanging from the rafters watching Notre Dame vs. East Cupcake University. We had more than 2,500 people behind the old bookstore to watch a Sweet 16 game in the Iron Man contests. Life is full of disappointment, where missing the NCAAs is a flea on the elephant's butt, and no excuse to abandon a bastketball team. They say the team under-performed down the stretch. So be it. The fans never should.
Also, if my two weren't at the game, they'll be transferring to Holy Cross next semester.
