COLGATE UNIVERSITY HATES BASKETBALL
Scroll down to the end of this PDF File. Look at all the team average attendances, and try to find one lower than Colgate's 404. YOU CAN'T. The Red Raiders had the dubious honor of lowest home attendance in the NCAA last year. Divison III Wisconsin-Eau Claire was 30th in DIII in attendance, and doubled the attendance of CU.
Now look here. Somehow, Colgate is LOSING ATTENDANCE this year. They're averaging 309 this year, including the 350 and 302 that attended this weekend's games. There are 2,750 students at Colgate. If every single person at the games is a student (probably not the case), that means 9% of them give a shit about their basketball team.
The highest attended CU game this year? A massive crowd of 450 for Lehigh and Harvard. The lowest is 150 against Army, which is probably an inflated number. @ 1:12 PM

Just so you know, those attendance numbers (at pretty much EVERY school) are bulls**t.
Most SIDs turn around, look at the crowd and guess.

I've been to games at Colgate. No way are their real numbers much bigger than that. They may be smaller.
