I love our GIGANTIC student section....I hope it NEVER goes away.
This.
It is freaking huge. Love it. Gotta be a big diff playing on our court with that large of a student section all along the side of the court vs playing elsewhere where they stuff the students in the corner rafters.
It won't. The SGA at the time made sure of it, because the AD paid for some of the Bram with the student's tuition fees and that was a stipulation. There will be 6,000 student seats forever.
The number/proportion of student seats is guaranteed, but not location.
Good...because that would be a sure fire way to kill OOD, by reducing the number of students there. In my opinion, this IS a college team, I think the Students should have a fairly substantial amount of seats.
I'm not really sure they could hide 6,000 students in bramlage, could move them to the corners I suppose, but I don't know how that would go over quietly. I think they have done about all they can do with the students....moved the team benches to the other side of the court.
