It's his biggest regret according to him. Alleva is a fricking weasel. Why are you trying to defend that clown?

I’m watching Kansas right now and their students do not have any problems in that location. They are killing it..

From TV, the TN game and Vandy home games last year were lit. Seemed as if the students and crowd were having a great time, why is that so hard to sustain?

Don’t really understand why the students aren’t in the middle. They don’t make much off the middle seats anyway. Plus there is almost no one ever at the games.

Make noise. They'll move it back. Continue to to play Minecraft on your fricking phones and it will stay right where it is

Will be this way unless Woodard truly can walk on water.


The old people in the building who have had tickets since 1989 are the great destroyers. They refuse to part with their tickets despite showing for 2 games.

The students in the late 80s/early 9ps were why we could beat a UNLV and a Loyola MMt UK several times. They were loud and took the entire side opposite today's benches.

It is embarrassing. Not the team. The layout.

What are you talking about? The season ticket holders are the only people who show up to games in nov, dec & jan. Students might show up in february if we’re ranked.

I am a season ticket-holder. I have 4 seats next to me that have never been used. Not even for Tennessee last year. Many seats have owners and they do not show.

The students would show if there was an environment that made them show. The formula is all wrong. They're deep in section 200-300 behind a goal. Not courtside. And someone thinks DJ C Mix or whoever is adding to the environment.

Also you are correct...the season ticketholders who DO show (and the ones with the Bob Pettit seats) and they also watch basketball like it is a chore. Until you can put the students in their spots again (and I am not an AD...do not know how that decision can be made without losing a cool million bucks), the environment of the PMAC is going to be lame. Only Georgia has a lamer environment than us. It will be a spectacle once a year...UT last year; OU in 2015; UK this year.

Bob sits right at center court second row behind the announcers.

The people who defend him are only remisicient of what he did 10 years ago and 5 years ago...even a year ago. What they do not realize is that he is poison.

When he made his irrelevant comments to the Advocate a few weeks back -- and if he is being honest -- that told me all I needed on why he did not come to the aid of WW.

When you are an AD, your final moves are what people remember from Blockhead to Joe to Skip to Joe.

When Joe showed up for the Vandy hoops game and showed his extreme unprofessionalism and his vanity, many pulled the plug.

I know. I am talking about all who sit in that vicinity on both sides.

Put Ed O In the student section. He can smash a few beers on his head and that will get them fired up.

The student section is just awful right now. It’s like someone needs to tell them it’s normal to yell when other team has the ball.

Since the mid-90s the student section was wild during the 99-00 season, the 2nd half of the 05-06 season, kentucky games a hand full of other games vs. ranked opponents. Other than that it was quiet or empty. Lsu kept the student section on the sideline a lot longer than most schools would have.

Games like today when upper baseline general public sections that cost money are pretty full and upper baseline student section free seats are pretty empty it doesn’t help he students cause.
