We canna do it, cap'n. She dunna have the power!

All this reminds me of what a neat atmosphere it's going to be for Memphis Madness in October. I bet they draw a lot more than 10,000 and change.

I can't wait!!!

Now that I see that Geoff wrote this, I gotta get on the facebook to watch Justin Wimmer and TOGC argue with him.

Geoff blocked TOGC.
Geoff is pretty open to people with differing opinions...you pretty much have to be a sick baby killer type for him to block you.

I'm guessing 9-11,000 sold.

Your point is clear, but the product is the University of Memphis.

That ALONE should be worth more.

You just made my case that we have fair weather fans. With the class, he is recruiting for 2019 and 2020 we need have more than 7,500 season tickets sold. We need to fill the forum and I think we will.

Anyone who waits to see how well we do are (despite your definition of fair weather fans in this thread) are the truest of the true fair weather fans. Penny has worked his butt off to get a good product on the floor and he ain’t done. Athletic department/ticket office is SOS but we are used to that. So if we don’t have an enthusiastic 10K in the building for most games, I will be disappointed in the fans as I’m sure Penny would too.

When you are recruiting the top 25 type kids like we are for 2019 we need the Forum to be rockin. They won’t be impressed with a apathetic 7K crowd in an arena that is too large for us when they compare it to Rupp, Cameron, etc.

Dayum. I don't see a whole lot of colored seats:

None better. That steal and assist while on his butt was once in a lifetime good.

Had his knees not given out, he would have been more highly regarded than Kobe. He kept his teammates involved and was just spectacular.

I really like Geoff and his work but he can be petty on blocking at times.

I can assure you that TOGC deserves a block. Something is wrong with that guy.

Mark clarified the ticket sales situation...
