LM put it best. And no... one tourney appearance with no wins is not building it. The culture and the effort shown have not built it. Needs more than that to get a packed house in the middle of nowhere mississippi. Namely not losing / showing minimal care against the other team in Mississippi.

Be mad at me for the truth all you want, but it's reality. This team doesn't inspire people to drive 2-3 hours on a weeknight to watch them. Hell they don't inspire most to dedicate 2 hours of a day to them. Hard to value the jersey name when the ones wearing it don't seem to respect it or take pride in it themselves.

Do more basketball like the first 30-35 minutes of yesterday (before ref ball and our old iso offense made a sudden reappearance to close the gap) consistently and it will naturally happen.
