Seem to remember hearing that they are doing a reseating as well.

Most interested in how this impacts Torres' decision. While it could make him MORE likely to go there with another guard removed from the equation, it also could make him LESS likely to go there since it seems obvious to me anyway that something is going on behind the scenes...

Does WSU have their own WDNWHA spokesman who will rule on this if happens as the faithful fear?

What exactly would that be? More complaints about the reseat process? One can only hope

Most of the people that have zero problem never spent 7 or 10 or 15 or $20,000 they probably mooch tickets from their friends and got somebody to buy their beers. , same group that think it's cool to get a free ticket and move into 104. Actually I think that's a good idea now haha

Their WDNWHA Committee is still operating at the MVC level so its sophistication will not match ours.

Interesting. So which is it - the major donors or the moochers? I guess both. To clarify, I don't love it and gave exactly the same as I have before (pretty damn far from major but certainly not free) and will let the chips fall. My guess is I'll get close to the same seats that I have had and have sat in for 95% of the games since Moody re-opened, despite a challenging commute. Maybe not exactly the same ones unfortunately, but not bad enough that I just won't support the program (with my $$$) either.

Regardless, the point is that every discussion on here gets hijacked with yet another comment about the reseat. We get it - some of you hate it and that's fine. If you hate it so much, move on to something else and that's understandable (again, never said I was a huge supporter of this). There is a 30+ page thread on the topic, continue voicing your displeasure there if you must.

On topics regarding the team, the coaches, recruiting, etc. though? Give it a rest...some of us actually want to discuss what's going on with the program OUTSIDE of the reseat.

For the record I was not referring to the reseat. I was poking fun at the recent firing of a parent of a sought after recruit, our history of NCAA violations, and our general inability to make smart decisions.
