RE: UAB Students lining up for UNC tickets
Would someone go out and tell the students that UNC isn't ranked please?
We can't have students getting excited for a team when they shouldn't be.

Keep in mind they may very well be ranked even hire than they currently are by the time we play. They have a potential match up against Kansas in the tournament they are playing in.

What happened to camping out... Back in my day we camped out for all "big" games (mostly conference games).

UNC is playing without PJ Hairston and Leslie Mcdonald. They would be undefeated and winning big, if both were currently on the team. Expect them to be back by December 1st.

I thought they were sitting out because of discipline rather than academics. Not sure about whats holding them out.

I watched part of an NC game and the announcers stated that they were facing NCAA eligibility issues, and it was unknown when they would be back on the team. Apparently it is something the NCAA has to rule on.

Looks like I may be wrong about the whole thing then.

Hopefully they stay out until after we beat them, then leading UNC to an incredible run, thus helping our RPI out while being a relatively easy win at the time of our game

$35 a ticket is a big difference than $25 a ticket.

With about a thousand left and the game still nearly two weeks away, I think it will be a sellout. UAB will make a ton of money on this game.

RE: UAB Students lining up for UNC tickets
For a rough estimate, lets say 7000 tickets sold at $35 a piece. (The others being taken by the students, etc)

That would be $245,000 for 1 game.

Since it is part of a contract, that money goes totally to UAB, assuming UNC gets to keep their money for their games.

Not to mention the $100 ticket packages that were bought that included the UNC game.
