Actually, Jimmer never had an undefeated season in the MC.
We were taking care of business with guys like Austin Ainge, Jimmy Balderson and Brock Reichner.

Moving the student section was a bad idea

letting Jimmer graduate was an even worse idea

There's a LOT fewer students in the lower bowl than there used to be. I think it

Oh I don't think they had to do it... they easily could have moved the student's

If a good UNLV team was in the house last night, you'd have seen the same thing.

Of course the opposing team plays a big part

So its the student section move and not the overall talent level of the team?

Maybe. I think it's definitely a part of it.

Has little to do with the location, and everything to do with the team

I guess that makes sense.

LOL, "tucked away in the corner" is more than a little dramatic...

It makes no difference if they were at BYU or not

You're right, it isn't a difficult concept

BYU needs to cover the tunnel and put seats right behind the basket.
BYUheaven

tunnel is necessary for other events moving abilities inside the MC.

Then how about removable seats?

definitely on to something there, biggest problem would be an aisle though

I agree that the magic has been sucked out of the building!

Then surely you remember 1997-98, when BYU was lucky to have 5,000 fans?

Yes! I remember those years fondly! You know that fake or real diamond under

Ha ha, I do remember those...

yeah... I'm pretty sure they used to put one real diamond in the arena...

I disagree, moving it hasn't impacted a single game's outcome

Jimmer, Jackson, Noah and Brandon were not part of our best MC years.
Ham

That's true, but the Jimmer years were still the best MC years.

If you want to see how it should be done, check out the Kennel

Sure, let's copy The Kennel. Just gotta remove 15,000 or so seats first...

There is NO Home Court Advantage now? Cougars can't shoot well in the Marriott

Especially when 50% of lower bowl ticket holders don't show up to some games
idcougarfan

this is the biggest problem, the lower bowl is completely sold out every game

Lost to LMU at home on 11/18/05 and the next home loss was #6 Wake Forest 1/3/09

The biggest advantage of putting the students behind the basket is severely

Put them right behind the opposing team's bench then.
