I'm jealous of the current students and the ROC. When I went to BYU, the
student tickets were scattered in small pockets all around the arena. We won 20 games every year (which meant more then than now because there were fewer games per year) and were nearly always in the hunt for the NCAA, but the style of basketball was slower and the Marriott Center was as quiet as your average Stake Conference in a young married ward. I even went to a game alone once because none of my friends wanted to go.

I was talking to my Sister-in-law about the atmosphere last Saturday. Like me, she went to BYU and then Kansas for grad school. She told me she actually brought a book to study the first time she went to a game at Kansas and was surprised there would be no studying opportunities. That's what she had been used to at BYU in those days. Now the atmosphere equals Kansas and we have more students (because the Marriott Center seats more).
