I disagree. Having been to games in the Pit (which I absolutely LOVED) and given a tour of the Matt and been on the court, it was a needed update. Today's HS athletes and transfer mercenaries wouldn't have been drawn to the Pit at all. And it is all about the amenities these days. Also, the Matt is more comfortable plus you couldn't put 12K plus in there. Lower the pricing and it would be filled more and close to as loud.

Time for me to activate my inactivate status and ask JJ to join me for the pot of gold that is awaiting if this is activated... And then there’s the new “NIL clearinghouse,” as established by the settlement. Here’s how South Carolina AD Jeremiah Donati explained it to fans in a recent letter: "As the settlement is currently written, NIL will look a lot different post July 1 when these new rules are adopted. For example, all deals between third parties and student-athletes over $600 will be subject to an independent fair-market-value analysis on a case-by-case basis. Deals that are above FMR — after being reviewed by a clearing house — will not be permissible for student-athletes to accept." You read that right. A clearinghouse (being operated by Deloitte) is going to tell athletes they can’t accept a $1 million offer from Collective X because its “analysis” determined they’re only worth $200,000. Lawsuits, lawsuits, lawsuits. PS I'm now going to ask my grade schoolteacher to change my sentence conjugation grade having just used activate three different ways in one sentence.
