It's the way we should have ours. I'm tired of our lame Oconee fans hogging the tv side with zero excitement. Put the students there so that it at least looks better on TV during home games. Smh

Amen. We need that to happen. Stegeman typically seems way better in person than it shows on tv, and that's a shame since tv shapes the perception of the program.

The good news is I feel confident we will sell out the joint for our next home game against the Vols.

Maybe so, I'm also factoring in the fact that the Vols typically bring a decent crowd here, particularly for a Saturday game.

Draft a letter that allows us to insert name(leave a link to the AD email ). Sticky it at the top of this page . I'd be curious to see if the AD would address this if we started spamming the shite out of his email. See if you can get 100 sends before our next home date.


Nothing will happen, but the seed will be sewn .

Probably that it would piss off the people who have always had those seats and don't want to move

Yea they are used to sitting in that seat even if it is for just a handful of games. The Tennessee game will be a sell out. Their coach left USM high and dry with a ton of NCAA violations he won't be there much longer

well that's horse shite. If our AD is so afraid to lose those people's donations, then just build a camera setup platform on the opposite side of the court and turn the G upside down. Then those old fricks still get their precious seats and the camera will actually pick up on the people who are actually trying to get involved in the game.

People that DONATE their hard earned money to our basketball program especially enough to have those seats deserve to not be moved. Our basketball program is probably the largest after thought in the conference. If you donate you should be rewarded and I dont care if you choose to take a nap during the game.

And just an FYI I have made about 5 games already this year and I do not reside in Athens or Oconee

Try voting - that seems to have done wonders in fixing the stuff that's broken in the country.
