SMU has such a small core group of fans and this re-seat is directly attacking that group. I think that if SMU had gone to their existing season ticket holders and INVOLVED them in the process of building the program (asking for increased donations, seeing if they want to move seats, letting them know the goals of the basketball program etc.) they would have had plenty of buy in!
BP- good ideas. But if you think about it your ideas might have involved something similar to 'marketing' and as we all know this AD does not believe in marketing.
As somebody else said- this is SMU- we do what we do. And as I have stated previously the school does its best to run off those who support it and then wonder why nobody cares to donate to it.
