After they fix the jumbotron they need to get rid of that stupid sprawling media center next to the student section.

Who the hell ever thought that was a good idea is a goon.


There actually is a reason for it being there (albeit not a good one). When the student section was moved away from center court to give season ticket holders better seats, they picked that side so that the "rowdy" students could sit closer to the away bench and give them hell. Also, NCAA rules prohibit the student section from being less than 2 "sections" away from the away bench unless the student section takes up the entire lower bowl as some stadiums do. The reason the media is there is so there is a "section" of people and the tunnel in between.

At least that's the response I got when I asked athletics about it when the student section first got moved.

They could easily make the whole bowl the student section. I guess they dont because students hardly show up. But on the same token that media center is 80% empty too most games.
