I would like to see one of the areas (if not both) behind the glass converted to student seating. With the band and students behind the glass, it might be fun. Currently, those rich guy seats are always empty.

I think we will play a lot of road games next year until Moody is ready. Tourneys, at places like UNT, UTA, and TCU.

But, a few early games should be played against HBC's at places like the Dallas city's venue. We need to send a message that SMU is for all of Dallas - not just University Park.

I thought the bowl would be complete before the start of play next season.

Not quite, but it will be ready before the start of Big East play.

I'm warming to the idea of a DFW tour, I really hope we don't play all pre-Moody games in Garland. Play in Garland, the DISD facility, Allen events center, etc.

It's going to be strange and students won't be at games, but lets make lemonade out of lemons with this situation and go on a barn storming tour.

agree the students and band should be seated behind the baskets on either end, positioned to distract opponents when FT shooting

also agree it would be good to play games all over Dallas if it becomes necessary

Did I read the price for the baseline seats right? The $10 baseline bleachers will now be $125?

What I find interesting is I can't find pricing for the upper level sideline seats...surely those will be offered as season tickets as well? Or are we expecting half of our student body to start showing up to basketball games?

I assume they are still figuring out the price for those - at least I hope so.
