Those going to the Iowa game...
I'm going to my first M hoops game of the season this Sunday against Iowa, and was hoping to see RichRod and some of the many recruits that are in for the weekend. For those that have been to previous games w/ recruits in town, or those going to the game who might know: where do the recruits and RR usually sit? I'm sitting on the Maize Rage side, up in the ether of section 57.
Thanks in advance.

photos on Rivals, it looks like they sit almost behind one of the baskets (or at least on the corner), next to a tunnel. I don't know how Crisler is laid out so I couldn't tell you which end.

They sit next to the main tunnel, where you will see the players go in and out of. Looking at the tunnel, they will be on the left side, typically in the first 4 rows or so. They are easy to spot, because most of them are pretty huge dudes, and Rich Rod is easy to find as well

That is where athletes sit in Crisler -- where the men's team sits when they come watch the women, that sort of thing. That is the basket that is closest to 57 (which is where we sit, up with God). That is, if you are standing in Maize Rage, 57 is to the right, and the tunnel is to the right.

Appreciate the info.
I'm going to the tO$U game next Saturday and will be somewhere way the f up in section 34 or 35. Sat in the same general area last season, also for the tO$U game. Way, way up there.

There is a free pancake breakfast for students starting at 10 right outside of Crisler on Sunday morning before the Iowa game. It should be fun.

is that advertised somewhere?

it's on facebook, but it is for students only so if you are one, bring your m-card to swipe. there is also free transportation from cc little, markley and like 3 other campus sites.

They are much more diligent about who is a student and who is not. Which is fine, I can afford my own pancakes and think it's nice that they are doing things like food and shirts and actually getting them to their target audience.
When then AATA buses were scanning MCards for riders they found a bunch of counterfeits.

Don't chant anything at the recruits or make signs for them. I don't think the NCAA allows that anymore.
