The funding for the department down the tubes, drop back to cusa and the university take a major hit across the board.

This is further evidence of just how much our team underperformed this year. I'm sure the athletic department planned for this increase 6-12 months ago and thought they'd be announcing it after a successful season, bowl game, etc.

Tough to pay an increase after this 5-7 clown show, but the "price of poker" not going down in this crazy NIL/Portal world.
That's what gets me. We have them in a premium area and they sell their tickets. Move then to the upper deck for those prices without donation. It's about money now. We are losing our on thousands because of it. Not a popular thing to do and have to see those people every day but now is the time

My seat license stayed the same but it went up a couple of years ago.
I think the cost of tickets went up too.

Speaking of geniuses, you recognize that costs are way up yet you expect Mississippi State Athletics to be immune to that? Or is it you think the poorest Athletic department in the league should eat rising costs and fall further behind? Or do you not understand how an economy works?
We're already the cheapest ticket in the SEC, but yeah let's make it harder on ourselves by letting profits drop as expenses rise. Nevermind being competitive, we're happy rocking along just trying to make a bowl so long as War Machine Dawg doesn't have to pay anymore for his tickets.
