Isn?t seat geek a reseller?

 If so

Mu can?t sell those tickets as they?ve already sold them.  The owner of those tickets is selling them. 

Interesting thing to me in this discussion is there are walk up reserve seats available and there aren?t online.

We were fortunate enough to see this band open for Eric Church in Charleston, SC. It took one song, and I knew they were gonna be good!











The Red Clay Strays are awesome!! I first heard them about a year or so ago, loving what I have heard so far!

This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. 1.) There is no such thing as the "G5" or "P5 (or 4)" for that matter. We all play in the FBS. 2.) Why in the world when most every FBS school STILL has a shot each year at (and usually does get into) the REAL TOP 25 (if they have their sh!t together) would you want your own pathetic "Top 25" of nobodies.

I'd much rather be ranked 24th in the country in a real poll than #1 in some pathetic spin off poll. We can all keep reducing things down until we get "ranked" at a number that makes us feel special I guess. Why stop at the G5...lets look at enrollment...we can make a top 25 of schools with under 20k...or maybe just look at the Sun Belt...we can assure ourselves of finishing in the top 2 each year if we just look at the state of WV. But hey we can be the #1 University in the city of Huntington each year if we do a ranking of Universities in Huntington, WV. Aughh #1 there we go. We did it! Warm and fuzzies all around!

I don't think the powers that be would have ever thought the smaller schools would be this dumb and embrace the derogatory term "G5". They won't have to kick us out of the FBS...we will kick ourselves out. Psychological warfare. It wasn't even real bait (it should have been a deterrent from breaking away from the FBS and motivation to STAY) and yet we still somehow took it hook, line, and sinker...and found a way to tuck tail and leave. Crazy. The story will go from the larger schools "We never kicked them out...we just called them a name one day and they felt insecure and left."

Not a fan of Seat Geek. Tickets prices are inflated and they kill you with a big fee. MU needs to sell tix on it's own and do away with Seat Geek. Not fan friendly. jmho

Totally agree, although for next weekend's games the SeatGeek cost isn't ridiculous.  $26/seat for Thursday.  WAAAYY to much for a regular attendee, but if you're just going to see a game or 2 its doable.

This writer for the Sports Business Journal implies that it is for at least the near future.

I think the proposed G5 top 25 will replace the G5 playoff on deciding who makes the CFP.

Apologies if this isn't a good place for this. My sons and I are headed to Huntington at the end of next week to see some baseball, and I'm trying to get some reserved seats for the Thursday and Friday games. I'm just really wanting to avoid SeatGeek fees if I can. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
We attended our first game this past Saturday.  I was under the impression that we would have to purchase $10 standing room only tickets.  When we got to the gate, the guy offered us $15 and $20 reserved tickets.  I had also heard the seat geak claim so not sure if that changed and wasn't advertised or what.  We bought the $15 tickets.

I was reading an article on the Coal Cats last night and it said single game prices are $7.  When I went to the tickets section, it takes you to Herdzone.com and prices are from $12-$20.  Seems nobody is ever on the same page...http://wrvc.com/tri-state-coal-cats-announce-roster/

The ironic part is the people who wanted out of CUSA into the Sunbelt to get off of Facebook Live.

Is going to find their way back on Facebook Live in the SB.

That was just a perk.  The reason we got out of CUSA is because it wasn't going to exist as we knew it within 2 years.  Whatever you think of the Sun Belt, it's a whole lot better than what's left of CUSA and makes about 2.5 times the revenue per school.  Even if that changes it will change across the board, not just for the Sun Belt and the ratio will remain the same.
