Blue bloods all over are having these issues. Attendance is down en masse. Florida just sent out a promotional email to push $10 tickets to play Samford (edited from the original post when I thought this was Georgia).

Swarbrick is an ass and the university's disgusting price gouging is certainly a contributing factor, but I think there are outside forces at play here that are affecting attendance around the nation. I'm not sure if it's temporary. To be clear, though, there are things ND can and should be doing to help mitigate the issue, but of course the leadership in place right now isn't keen to do those things.
