Respectfully disagree. If folks are walking miles to the venue and see a crack house and decide "hey, let's go over there and hang out to see what those guys are up to", then maybe - and I just say "maybe" mind you - it could lead to an "awful" situation. Otherwise, all the hand-wringing over this seems premature and void of common sense.

Get a cab and drop off right at the arena. What's the big deal?
Some good things I see in this...
1. Lots of JMU faithful within easy driving distance to fill the place up and make it a sea of purple. Just hoping Rowe has the program firing on all cylinders by 2020, which will be Lewis and Company's junior year (I'm optimistic).
2. Easy bus ride up and back for JMU students - like they did at Richmond when we last won the CAAT in '13.
Of course, if I were commish, the CAAT would be in Vegas. I luuuuuuuv that town.
