I had a call last week about season tickets, with the cheapest being $500/ seat. That doesn't sound like a terrible deal with MU and Kentucky both coming to town to play this year. I guess I'm just wondering if those seats would be any good at that price. Not that's there is really a bad seat in the house, but I'd at least want it to be a seat instead of just a GA ticket.

I fully anticipate a lot of KU fans seeing Cam Martin drain a 3 early on and immediately look up who he is.
With the Supreme Court this week, is there any chance KU doesn't get punished at all? If kids can profit from their likeness, the shoe companies can pay them whatever they want, legally. [Reply]
Well I think the important thing is the Supreme Court overtly invited further lawsuits with their ruling. I think if the NCAA goes overboard on their punishment KU will file suit the next day.
It might be in their best interest to give KU a slap on the wrist, especially since they don't technically have any evidence. In the past the NCAA didn't NEED evidence, they often punished programs based on what they believe went down. You start involving actual courts and welp be prepared to spend a lot of money and ultimately lose I guess. [Reply]

Tangential to the case. The NCAA claims we received an improper competitive advantage thru said payments, even if they had been legal.
Besides, this ruling is after our alleged benefit occurred. A lawyer could help here but that’s like an ex post facto item that doesn’t apply to the rules in place. [Reply]

I’m expecting a huge punishment because it’s a very ncaa thing to do to let UNC walk for letting their kids commit academic fraud but blast KU for doing what literally every school is doing. Yes, even Wichita State Chiefroo. [Reply]

Does Wichita State even have a basketball program anymore? [Reply]
