Agreed! The fan base is not conducive for a franchise like this. Though arena football would not do well, I did see a post that said that the arena football would be the same day every couple weeks (hit or miss) therefore allowing for more people to make it an event type setting whereas the minor league basketball would have very in consistent scheduling. I don't see attendence being high for the games throughout the week and throughout the season for a matter of fact. I mentioned the ways to draw a good crowd earlier.
1) Former UK players
2) Local high school stars
3) Both of these with a winning team

So, I think you are right on when you say that this is another stunt that will put the expo deeper into the hole.
