Gymnastics > Basketball?

Thought it was time someone besides Jake did some work around here.

Star-divide

Just to put in perspective where men's basketball team is in the eyes of the fans.  I went to the Women's Gymnastics meet last night against Washington (my girlfriend made me, I swear).  Actually turned out to be pretty fun.  They dominated the Huskies, which was nice.  Anyways, there had to have been at least as many fans there last night as there have been at the last few home basketball games.  Couldn't find an actual attendance number on the OSU website, but Gill was pretty full all the the way up to the bleachers, which is to say about half full.

I guess my point is that the basketball team sucks and everybody knows it.  Earth shattering, I know.  I just thought it was a pretty telling observation.  I guess it also means the gymnastics team is pretty good, too.  Plus, the girls are a little bit nicer to look at than C.J. Giles & Co.

2,958 was the official number...
The Men's Basketball team drew about 4,000 for their first two home Pac-10 games, but still, I'll take 3,000 excited fans over 4,000 moaners and groaners any day of the week.

I saw Beavers All Access a few weeks ago when they showcased the gymnasts. Looks like we have some good talent this year.

Thanks for the update.
