Rice university athletics called me yesterday to offer $124 season football tix.

they have control of the databases from the ticketing systems - not all schools have that luxury unfortunately

If what you claim is part of the problem, what is the easy fix? Does the SWAC or each school need its own ticketing system/ticketing agency? Would the system pay for itself over time, everybody else sells data or access to it?

But the athletics office has their own email database or should have. That is a cop out.

Interesting, I see similar lack-of-customer-concern issues with some of our restaurants, stores, etc.

ITS A LACK OF SERVICE FOR THOSE YOU SERVE, plain and simple!

There is an easy fix, BUT THEY JUST WON'T DO IT...cause they know folks will still come.

This.

And that is where they are horribly wrong. "They" think folk w/ common sense will still come to support such low quality efforting. Thank you SWAC-TV. Thank you HBCUGO. Thank you ESPN2. Thank you youtube-tv. Thank you ncaa NIL. I've learned more over the last 2-3 months than I care to know about NIL packages and how they also extend to 2 family members of the coveted one's choosing to finance travel to/fro home and away games.

I'm still tripping on rice univ calling offering $124 season football tix for 7 home games. (GA seating in the big stadium)

$325 season tix sam houston st - midfield chairback seating; 7 home games.

$99 season tix stephen f austin - GA seating; 6 home games.

I know damned well lamar university isn't offering GA season tix for 6 home games for $60. Surely my eyes are wrong. Surely. smh

not for tickets sold unfortunately - if they didn't get it from the external ticketing system they use or switched from - that's it

at TSU alone it went from something to SeatGeek to some new one and 2t all in 7 years and not all sell the same sports

Tickets sold??? What about season ticket holders, that information is available?

What is the easy fix to this foolishness? The excuses have to stop.

Those are excuses not to do something.

Man, sometimes you have to do extra so the others will catch on. We will appreciate it.
