When the Eagles beat Idaho and the article about was on page 6, the editors said articles are placed based on fan interest and interest in a particular school.
When the Eagles lost to UCLA it is top of page 1 news. So one must conclude that there are more subscribers who read this rag from Los Angeles than Spokane and Idaho.

Your preaching to the choir, can I have an amen please, one more time, amen.
At least there is interest now, and attendance, and $$$$$. Coach has raised tens of thousands of extra dollars that he has used for recruiting. He is getting it done.

The problem with this logic (from crummy old SR) is that fan interested can be heavily influenced by the media. So if SR did regularly place EWU articles front and center that alone would build a fanbase due to the fact that people are sheep and won't form an opinion outside of what a news media tells them...
 
The problem for EWU is that the games against WSU and Gonzaga both resulted in losses, and the WSU loss was a total blowout. You can't shed the "second rate" label if you don't win against the local rivals.

Had Eastern beaten Oregon or UCLA in other marquee matchups, there would have been something to hang the hat on, but that didn't happen either. I'm not trying to be negative, but EWU has lost all of the "big" games they've played this season with the only exception being the win at Idaho.
