“9/10 emails I receive from U OF U are solicitations for money.”

This estimate may be low.

The only time I ever parked at the stadium was when I was going to the U. After that, I’ve always taken TRAX to games.

Yeah, it seems like even if the Jazz do get a all star player; they will end up wanting to leave anyway.

I would say they tanked the 2011-2012 season and drafted Klay Thompson

I don’t think GS ever tanked. Steph was #7, Klay #11, and Draymond was #35 in their respective drafts, plus most of their role players are late 2nd-rounders. I’d be more worried about the Jazz’s last two drafts, where they had 5 1st-round picks and multiple 2nd-round picks, with only Collier and Flip appearing to be decent role players. The OKC…[Read more]

Unfortunately there is no salary cap or restrictions on free agents in college. Can imagine what the NBA would look like if the same rules applied.

Tanking only seems to work for certain teams (Golden state, etc…). The NBA is broken and has been for quite some time.

Can someone give me one good reason they won’t sell season tickets in the upper bowl? I just don’t get it. I would rather sit in the upper bowl towards the center than behind the basket in the lower bowl.

A technique I used last season for Utah Hockey Club tickets is just drive to the arena about 30 minutes before puck drop and continually check the ticket prices on various apps. I got in to a handful of games for less than $20 a ticket.

I received the same email as well. My tickets just added the $100 Crimson Club charge, so now I’m up to $350 per ticket. Not a big deal but I expect to see some definite improvement this season if the university wants me to continue reupping.

I received an email thanking me for loyalty, energy, support, etc. in the past which included a new pricing map. Implied renewal information would come out in a few weeks.

This reminds me of when we were in the Mountain West and our first game would always be and marquee opponent like Oklahoma or Michigan and we’d ruin their season on game one.

Wow. I thought maybe they’d do that after they showed some improvement first.

Brutal price increase for some of us. Would be nice to have a few respectable pre-season opponents.

They’re adding a Crimson Club obligation to my level ($100), plus my tickets are going from $100 to $250 each.

Don’t get me wrong – I’ll still do it. It’s still the best deal in the state for high-level basketball.

I like the Wisconsin game. But Nevada? Booo! We don’t recruit NV that much, and when we do, those players are predominantly from the Las Vegas region. So schedule UNLV.

And I hate scheduling all FCS teams. Even the “Utah” ones.

I’m sure the scalpers have ticketmaster accounts. They probably do a lot of last minute desperation buys/sells. That’s my guess.

Tony, I hope that you’ll go to the Wyoming game. I’ll be there as I always wanted to see a game at the stadium that’s at the highest altitude in the US. It’s also within easy driving distance from SLC.
