ATLANTA (AP) -
Few fans are showing up to see Georgia Tech, which has fallen to last place in the ACC in its season without a true home court.
Only 5,009 saw Georgia Tech's 64-49 loss to Miami Tuesday night at Philips Arena, one of two temporary home courts this season while the school's on-campus arena is being rebuilt.
There was a solid turnout of more than 9,000 for a visit from Duke. Attendance has been below 6,000 for every other home game.
The Yellow Jackets, who play at seventh-ranked North Carolina Sunday, have lost four straight and eight of nine with first-year coach Brian Gregory.
Associate athletic director Wayne Hogan says fans and the administration knew this would be a tough season -- on the court and in the stands.
