I feel the same way about OSU home games for men's and women's hoops. Everything is so scripted and stale. They all follow a formula they're told by some marketing gurus to follow. You coouldn't beat the atmosphere at Gill or Mac Court back in the 80s and early 90s. It was all natural.

It appears the college programs are trying to follow an NBA model for manufacturing atmosphere. The atmosphere at Gill and Mac was created by students, and players, and quirky coaches (Miller and Harter)...and the then ticket prices. Wish we could recapture that. Bring back the Lone DeRanger? Maybe it's too easy to see games now with so many televised instead of making a sacrifice to attend and be "part of it."
