Baylor is not a traditional powerhouse. They are a smaller city and university
compared to city and university size for most of the rest of the Big 12.
Sports teams in general are downsizing stadiums - just look at the Marriott Center going down from 21k down to 18k.
Sports obsession/fandom is decreasing around the country with the younger generation. People nowadays will more often choose watching the game on tv instead of sitting in the nosebleeds.
I bet the business plan for the new Baylor stadium was to increase prices everywhere. Then they try to sell out every game instead of just selling out a few games a season. It is a risk, because selling cheap seats in the nosebleeds is a way to nurture the fandom of rising generation and the non-wealthy.

I don’t understand Wrubell’s obsession with attendance. If everyone else had an arena the same size as ours

This word, attendance, I don’t think it means what you think it means. Lots of teams fail to fill their arena.
