After an epic last season of both Womenās + Menās Gamecock Basketball, has the departure of star players like Sindarius Thornwell + P.J. Dozier caused fans to lose faith in this yearās menās basketball team? Nope.
8,700+ menās basketball season tickets have already been sold ā and the home opener against Western Michigan isnāt until Nov. 13. In fact, the marketing department has already surpassed the number of season tickets sold last year (8,340). And itās not slowing down ā the number of sales changes significantly by the hour.
Coach Frank Martin has been vocal on social media about capitalizing on the programās recent successes, and the fans seem to be listening. Ticket sales are up 52% since he arrived to coach the āCocks from Kansas State six years ago.
