In the exact same boat. Losing some good fans.
Just come up to the back wall with me! just kididng I'd be pissed too I don't blame you
As bad as I hate to say it...it looks as though the University and Athletic Dept. are once again putting the "cart before the horse." There is no doubt that with LB coming to SMU, the Moody renovation and last years sellout crowds there is real optimism for the basketball program. Last year it was THE place to see and be seen. So far this year the only one that has been seen is Clayton Kershaw along with the alumn who was Homecoming Parade Grand Marshall from whatever comedy show he is in.
My point is, I was just as disappointed as anyone last year for being snubbed by the big dance committee, but we've done nothing more than reaching the N.I.T. final...and we lost. From what I've seen this year we are in REAL trouble with a lot of noticeable weaknesses. At the rate we are going right now, we will be lucky to finish in the top 4 of the AAC. I really don't think now is the time to be pushing aside alumni and fans who have solidly supported this program through the many lean years.
Just my opinion, but if this trend continues this year and they continue jacking ticket prices, the MC donation level just to appease a few donors, they might just price themselves out of the loyal fan base. Bottom line, put several successful skins on the wall before you take such actions. Once you've earned it, then you have a reasonable cause for this action.
I had 2nd row center court for 5 years and when the stadium was renovated SMU ticket office [deleted] up and gave away my seats. Now rows 4 & 5 center court. I am not moving further up. I am not impressed with their "proposed" plan.

Please explain the plan to me.
Nobody knows the plan yet... at least nobody that's allowed to post it here.
