Yeah, I don't think SMU will hit Mavs status any time soon. By that I mean, good for an extended amount of time so that season ticket holders/fans dont show up for the crap games even though the game is a "sellout." I think next year we pack the house even with crappy opponents. People have been starved for good basketball for a while. If LB sticks around, and we keep this going for an extended amount of time, then maybe we will have the smattering of no shows when we are good/not great during non marquee games.....but that is WAYYYYYY in the future.

Fine I guess I will resort to donation. There is no way these don't sell out.

If anyone is looking to make a donation, pm me. I can help with that on Morgan Campaign.

Remember, we will play a solid 8ish home games in Nov-Dec against total crap opponents. Louisville will be gone, so there will only be 4-5 "must see" games. After a couple games we will get used to Muiday destroying the likes of Texas State. The meaningful games come along in conference play.

Just my thoughts, but I already have the seats.


Wrong, sellout all the way, the only question is how much will tickets be.

And those crappy OOC games you speak of will be the only opportunity T Shirt fans will have to see the Ponies in person for maybe a semi reasonable price in 2ndary market, but I would not even count on that.
It's kinda crazy, all the new fans SMU will have and yet maybe very few of those new fans will be at the games.
But hey, that's just like Duke, they have loads of die hard fans that have only seen them on TV.

I hope my ticket rep can slide me the single ticket that was available between my pair and my neighbors pair of seats.

I guess they're so confident that things will sell out that they don't need to return calls.

If you'd quit peeing in their backyard maybe they would call you back.
When will I start feeling stimulated??

Will SMU go the Jerry Jones route and sell "party passes" or standing room only in the area where you can stand and look out onto the court? I would imagine we could probably do that for the big games against UConn, Cincinnati, Memphis, Arkansas, etc.
Back off Warchild seriously.
