Please move this game to Moody instead of playing in the FWISD gym!

Ugh, I hope we don't have to play in that HS gym near I20.

It would be nice if they move it to Moody but I doubt they will since they've already charged season ticket holders for the game.

I've mentioned it before, but I went to the Kansas-TCU game at the HS gym last season. That was the big home game of the year for TCU and it was still more than 50% KU folks.
If we make a decent travel showing we can take that place over. Getting there during rush hour is a PITA from Dallas, though.

I thought bad things, alleged incompetence, and allegations of AD malfeasance only ever happened at SMU?

The Nov. 13 season openers for both the TCU men and women will both be played on campus in the University Recreation Center. The women will host Sam Houston State at 6 p.m., while the men face Southeastern Louisiana at 8:30 p.m. All other men’s games, prior to the Dec. 20 Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena opening, will be played at the Wilkerson-Greines Activity Center in Fort Worth. The women will continue to play their games temporarily at the University Recreation Center.

Season-ticket holders may use their season tickets for admission into all games played at Wilkerson-Greines and the University Rec Center. All seating at both venues will be General Admission.

Ground saturated from heavy rains. Needs to dry out before they can back it into place and remove the wheels.

#SMU to face #TCU in hoops at Wilkerson-Greines in Ft. Worth on Dec. 2. TCU's renovations won't be done until Dec. 20.

Last I checked, it was an indoor arena. How does weather affect renovating the interior? Did they hire the Aggie who built Allen's FB stadium to lead the project?

When do single game tix go on sale for TCU? This is not good as they will have an uptick in season tix sales w new arena and this smaller venue will eat up those tix.
