Understood. Just a personal preference.

What I do not understand is the people advocating the useless act of mailing in season tickets. In case you do not know, they have already received your money. That does not hurt anyone but you. Donate them to some charity or church and at least get a tax write off. Then, if you are serious, email or tweet that you will not renew. Otherwise it is just like you burning your own money in protest.

I would like to give my tickets to someone if they need them. I have already emailed the AD, expressing my displeasure of the state of the program. It was a polite email, no need to be ugly that does not accomplish anything. My email will not change anything but I would like Hart to know how disappointed I am.
GO MUSTANGS!

I will take whatever tickets that anyone wants to dispose of.

You could mail the rest of your season tickets with personal mail that says I like to affirm my cancellation of future tickets til we see true fundamental progress. Right now we would get blown out by UNT..

I'm still going to go to every game that I can because I do enjoy the atmosphere of college football specifically at SMU.... but my God I am on my knees praying for changes in the near future....

I'm doing my best not let this football debacle bring me down for the hoops season. This is easily the most excited I've been about one of our teams ever.

If a change isn't made, why would anyone need a season ticket next season? Even before the game, there is zero buzz about this program that's only four games into the season.

I will not be buying season tickets next year if June is back, period. I not a big donor by any means but that is 4 fewer sold.

I can't say that I will not attend any games, as I can't help supporting my team to some extent, but the "little guy" can only send a message so many ways.

I can't believe this is what it has come to after 6 years of JJ...think back to how we all felt in 2008. Makes me sick.

I am going up and back on Saturday using the company jet (SW Airlines). I love live college football, love my school. Just because I am not happy with people over whom I have no control, I cannot pass up the opportunity to be there. If I were in the C of C or AD, I might be taking a little more action

I thought you were a CoC

Mailing your tix to the board of trustees. Outside of Laura bush and a couple others, I doubt that any of them attend smu games. Other than people on ponyfans, I'm not sure if any smu alumni have been to a game in the past few years.
