Going down, down, down with the flames getting higher

In an article on the UNLV athletics budget, these numbers appeared:

"Meanwhile, men’s basketball ticket sales have fallen at about the same rate as the team’s overall victories. UNLV currently has sold 5,198 season-ticket packages, down from 6,058 sold at this time last year.

But the bigger trend is even more concerning, as the final tallies have steadily fallen:

2012-13: 9,411

2013-14: 8,344

2014-15: 7,120

2015-16: 6,561"

6,561 is enviable from an SJSU point of view but not sustainable when it's hoops that needs to carry the UNLV budget.
