The tower on the west side isn’t actually connected to the stands. I could be misinformed but I believe that was intentional to keep from having to tear down the west side completely.
That sounds right.

Me personally, I want to guarantee free admission to as many students as possible. I think it's part of App State's mission as a public university. And having 10K students at every home game makes the atmosphere what it is. Take that away in exchange for money and you could lose both ways in the long time.

Miller Hill is unique. Although the mud slides are fun, I would like to see some organization of the hill. Not sure what..but would be nice and maybe get more students in the section...Miller Hill and the student section going all the way down home sideline is impressive and we need to keep that intact

I’ve stated it before and I’ll reiterate, if they limit the students’ ability to get in, I will stop going in protest.

Our student section is a right of passage and makes KBS special. I appsolutely love that our program gives the student body end to end lower level, behind the bench premium seating that now extends through Miller Hill. Solid college core memories are made there that exceed any dollar value.

Side note- Holmes looks ridiculous on TV for nearly every game with barely anyone in lower level courtside seats with the students behind the baskets. I get the whole ticket sales aspect but when 80% of those seats are empty we lose a big student affect.
