They aren't up to par with the student section from the Stro and Jabari days, but they are getting better with each game. It doesn't help that the lower level section is separate from the other sections. They are still a work in progress, but I expect their "A" game on Saturday night!

We shall see, but as of right now, they are not a factor against the opposing team. There air ball chant consistency was pretty good though, i must say.

I'm not a big fan of the Lower Level Student Section. It divides the students and isolates them from the court.

I'm curious, what are the students thoughts on the Lower Level Section?

Yes. They'll never live up to that 1999-2002 class.

No doubt, those were my undergraduate days. However, I've heard some great stories about student sections from back in Dale Brown's glory days!

That student section was illegally recruited. The effect it had on our student section in following years is incalculable. Thank goodness we had John Brady.

Old John, I have to admit it was nice when he'd come thank the student section after a big win. Despite what many people think, the guy wasn't all bad.

Having sat in the student section before they split it up and after, the new one sucks and is most responsible for lack of student interaction in the games. Move it back the way it was or put the whole section behind the goal. That will increase the noise. Having 300 down by the court isn't enough. It's the athletic depts fault. But from what I understand they are trying to do something to fix it.

I think the student section's credibility took a big hit when Kounjia Nation was founded. We wasted our entire budget on a Central African Republic flag so that we could cheer for the 10th man.

We made some really shitty decisions.

Im tired of hearing about the student section. I sit in the Maravich Maniac section for every game. We need more non-student fans. We're doing our part

The student section will never be the same as when the Shaq Pack ruled the PMAC! Of course we had Shaq, but that's beside the point!

actually i have been a student on and off since 02 and missed about 10 total games during that time. It was an email sent out saying games that were in high demand, they would make students register before hand. There has already been a game that students had to register for. I called the ticket office and Xavier is NOT one but Bama will be so

Because BAMA is a weekend game when students are off for the Mardi Gras holiday.

The LSU Student Section is ridiculous. I've never seen a more chopped up section. They should put the media section on the other side and let the students have that entire side. Let the section go down right next to the court. It would be much more intimidating.
