Basketball season ticket prices...wow
So, I called the Ticket Office after work today about not receiving my renewal information in the mail, and when I realized it hadn't arrived yet, decided to check out renewing online.
Boy, was I surprised, expectations/renovations be damned: $560 to renew season tickets. Is Dave Brandon for real? Yes, yes he is.

Why are you going back ten years? We know things were crappy under Amaker and Ellerbe, but that's irrelevant now. We're defending Big Ten champs. We have a preseason top 10 team. Those are the facts going into this season.

Apples and oranges. If you lose one game in football, you plummet in the polls no matter what. Our football team might turn out to be very good, but whenever you start out 2-2 you drop out of the rankings.
That does not happen in basketball. The basketball polls don't have crazy week-to-week variation. The polls are more about how good people think teams are and not so much about whether they happened to win their last game.

for the season are high right now! Shows that Michigan basketball is coming back. I can't imagine how bad ticket prices were killed after the Fab Five scandal. Despite it being a good thing for a the university it's a bad thing for the pockets of the students paying for them.

Thats not a bad price, when you consider they just spent $52 million to redo the Crisler Center.
