Any word on tournament ticket sales and how it compares to last year? I get the feeling Ohio is going to have a heck of a turnout!

I'm not very well connected to many season ticket holders, but I don't recall so many people telling me they'll see me in Cleveland as  I did at the last home game.  I too am anticipating a large OHIO following!

A friend ordered two more tix for Friday this morning and was told that they have sold five times as many tickets with one day left as they did all of last year.

I hope that's true! I would love to see The Q covered in green!

Ticket office said this will be the best Ohio crowd in Cleveland ever.

Based on my friends attending, I am not surprised.

Having the set schedule of knowing EXACTLY what date/time we play a couple of weeks in advance helps GREATLY....especially being Friday and Saturday nights.

Yes. I knew this would be a big boost for attendance. And looking like huge favorites Friday can only help.

I have never been this excited for the MAC Tournament. Picking my daughter up from school at 1 on Friday and heading north. Last year we only made the finals.

The MAC specifically cites the new seeding as a booster of sales in this article.

The wife and I are headed up after my son's doctor's appointment tomorrow.  Yeah, we won't see Ohio until Friday but nothing like watching three days worth of basketball.  I wish they would go back to Thursday afternoon.  It's so much fun eating lunch while watching a basketball game.
