Renew season tickets

[spider fan]

Renewal deadline to keep current seats July 22nd.

Shouldn't there be some caveat/clause that if the team doesn't win a certain number of games that money from the coach's contract will be reallocated at a preset amount across the spectrum of season ticket holders based on the number of wins? Appears reasonable to me......................

The communication, itself, reads like some frustration has been heard by the AD...

In 2015-16, we showed our true Spider spirit by wearing red and showing our support for our Spiders as our average home game attendance grew to the highest it has been since the Dick Tarrant era (1992-1993). Even through the ups and downs, we were loud and proud and each moment we experienced together. We showed our passion and enthusiasm and we just plain had fun. We were truly One Richmond, United in Red.

In 2016-17, Coach Mooney, his staff, and student-athletes have never been more committed to getting our program back to the Big Dance. We have one of the finest recruiting classes in the history of Spider Basketball entering this summer-Nick Sherod, De’Monte Buckingham and Grant Golden. All three of these fine young men were all born in the great city of Richmond (Grant moved to Winchester, Virginia)! Nick, De’Monte and Grant will be bringing their family, friends and local communities to the Robins Center. We hope you are ready to welcome them to the Robins Center and create some new Spider memories that will last a lifetime!

you guys read a lot more into that press release than I do.

It's not a press release, it's an appeal to renew season tickets. Show me the last season ticket renewal that uttered the phrase "even through the ups and downs" and I'll stand corrected.

Lol. This made me laugh out loud.

don't pretend to remember the details of previous renewal communications, but am surprised by no mention of TJ, ShawnDre' and Fore our strongest returnees...

its like we're starting all over...let's hope we find some new life through the frosh...

despite the frustrations of recent seasons, I will renew...

Alright Ulla props on that one!

Good to know that "in 2016-17, Coach Mooney, his staff, and student-athletes have never been more committed to getting our program back to the Big Dance."

What the hell else have they been doing since 2011?

This explains why last year's season ticket renewal letter said: "Coach Mooney and his players and staff remain lukewarmly motivated to return to the NCAA tournament. Come and see for yourself!"

We've obviously been all of our resources to the Coaches' Cookoff. Which brings up an important question, can we hang a banner for that?

"Coach Mooney - the People's Champ, 2 Years in a row"

Since he lost to Will Wade the last 2 years

He faced Buzz Williams in 2015.

Half-assing it apparently.

I like the fact that they let you pay it in 3 installments interest free. I went ahead and paid in full, but I could see how it would be beneficial to those who just laid out a chunk of change for the Spider Club and have to cough up the cash for season tickets for hoops, on top of football tix a couple of months ago. Well worth it since it fills up my fall/winter calendar with stuff to do.
