    BYU Basketball 26-27: <I don't have a cool season descriptor>

    Someone feel free to come up with a better season descriptor and edit the title of this thread.

    Like with football, the 2026-2027 basketball season has new limits for seat purchases at the different Cougar Club donor levels. Arena donors get their guaranteed seats. After the arena donors comes:

    Athletic Director's Circle ($1M+ lifetime, $25K renewal): 10 tickets - unchanged from 2025
    Legacy VI: ($500K, $7K): 8 tickets - down from 10 last season
    Legacy V: ($250K, $6K): 6 tickets - down from 8 last season
    Legacy IV: ($100K, $5K) 4 tickets - down from 6 last season
    Legacy III: ($50K, $4K) 4 tickets - down from 6 last season
    Legacy II: ($25K, $3K) 4 tickets - unchanged from last season
    Legacy I: ($10K, $2K) 4 tickets - unchanged from last season

    The "trickle-down economics" of this should mean that there are going to be upper-bowl seats available for Golden Cougars this year.

    Unfortunately for me, my overall rank in the club dropped 18 slots as bigger fish with deeper pockets move into the higher levels. It's good for the program and money talks so I don't mind it too much. I would rather BYU have a good program and me not get quite as good seats than BYU to have a sucky program but get great seats. I suppose I'm not a "true fan" anyway because I leave early to beat traffic once if I think the game is decided.

    I have been Gold for a few years. I would very much like to upgrade to lower Legacy levels but it's not in the cards for now. Even as Gold last year I was able to buy four upper bowl seats. The move for us poor people for good games we want to actually be able to see is to sell the four upper bowl tickets and then buy two lower bowl seats. Was planning on that again this year but they also reduced our max allotment from 4 to 2.

    All good for the program. I just need more money to be able to enjoy it.

      I just went from Legacy II to Legacy III this contribution cycle. I think my contributions improved my total CC standing from last year and between that and the decrease in max purchase limits to those above me I am hopeful I will be able to get back into the lower bowl. One of my twins is planning to start at BYU in January, and she is a huge sports fan, and we will be empty nesters shortly so I expect we will make more games this year than years past. If I am not yet bougie enough to get back amongst the beautiful people in the lower bowl I think I am still young enough that I can almost tell what is going on from the upper bowl and the hike to those seats helps me to get my daily steps in!

        My suggestion for the descriptor:

          I am Legacy I this year. Upper bowl I presume but hopefully back to the chair seats.
