The eye test for fans outside of the conference

I'd still have Koch at the top, but Gentile and Knapp also play well on TV. (sorry for any spelling errors)

The Ford Center is probably at the bottom, fans are too far away with it being primarily a hockey arena, with a true basketball layout not available.

Koch is very good due to always being full and rowdy, but the camera angle is super low. It is like the opposite of Iba Arena in Stillwater which is super high.

Huh? Pre 2010 it was like that but that's been adjusted now. Have you not watched a WSU game on TV in the last 7 years?

Most others count their attendance as People at the game.

Big Difference and great point

Nobody reports butts in seats any more. That ended like 20 years ago.
