found this on Loyola's board:
This week I was informed by Lee Reed, AD at CSU, that there may be a new seating arrangement league wide. It hasn't been voted on yet, but it will be. It states that 50 seats DIRECTLY behind the visitor's bench will go to the visiting team ONLY. He says that my name was specifically brought up with regards to this discussion. He thought it was very funny. A few of the coaches piled on me ( You know who they are), but I actually got a little support from the UWGB coach. Lee says that CSU would definitley vote against this and probably UIC. I have never been to LU. Would this move some season ticket holders??

Stomper can't be too happy about this.

I'm sure it won't be a problem relocating ticket holders @ UIC...it's not like it's actually hard to find an open seat in that arena!

Stomper can't be too happy about this. I think since we are located just behind the radio team we will be ok. I think its a joke that this is even a problem. But to tell you the truth for the past three years we have been threatened about having are seats eliminated. UWM's AD has had so many problems with us being close to the bench. I guess the HL is trying to take a stand against taunting. Do you think this would happen in the ACC? Anyways I bet this wont happen, if anything like I said they will simply take the seats out from that section, and either they will keep us where we are at or lose us as ticket holders cause were not moving close to center court.

I do not think its so much as taunting. But the players were actually with in reach of the fans. I do remember reports of Mark and other players being grabbed by opposing fans during games. thats my two cents.

Well if thats the case then I have no problem with that. I cant believe anyone would do that sh*t, but with the way things have been going on in sports anything is possible. I just think its a shame that the HL has to step in and do something about it. You guys are the only ones who really bring much of a fan base to the games on the road. So besides allowing more Panther fans down on the floor im not sure who it will really help. I guess maybe parents and what not. But really its not like we have these great student sections following the teams. I mean YSU, CSU, WSU, UWGB, and BU really bring very few people to the stadium. Not sure how it is at your place.
