I tried to move my tickets to any section that has access to the club lounge by staying in touch all spring ...but looks like my name was too far down the list to make that happen. Not that there is a bad seat, but that halftime access would have been nice.

What if a tennis player came and got a free tshit

What if a tennis player gets one of those free towels that will be given away at the Tech game next week?

I think it is only a problem when an athletic schlorship player gets something that is not readily available to every other student.

I just remember because there was some sort of issue when someone at BYU a year or two ago privately raised money to make shirts and hand them out when there was a top recruit visiting the school. Don't remember exactly what the story was, but that sort of stuck in the back of my mind.

I mean there has to be a reason schools like UK, KU and Duke haven't already done this (to my memory) right?

I believe the incident you are remembering was one where the shirts that were handed out directly addressed a message to a recruit who was visiting at the game. Something urging him to come to their school. Totally different from just handing out tshirts in the crowd to most everyone that are just a certain color or have the school name on them.

That is correct. I'm not entirely sure if there's a real difference though

The difference is that the tshirts are used as a recruiting tool and boosters are not allowed to communicate with recruits regarding their choice of school. You can have a chance encounter with a recruit, but as soon as you realize who you are talking to you have to recuse yourself from the situation. If SMU hands out 5,000 SMU tshirts that simply support SMU that is not a message directed at any one recruit so there is no violation there.
