Do you:
Have season tickets?
go to the games?
sit in Cyclone Alley?

This is off topic but whoever thought it was a good idea to start the CYCLONE POWER chant when we were down 5 with 20 secs left is an idiot.
There is no fee. If you got student tickets before they sold out, it was included. The only people who didn't have a fair shot at season tickets were freshman with REALLY late orientation. Even then the $99 season tickets plus the $30 for Cyclone Alley still came out to the same amount I paid for my student tickets ($260 for basketball/football...$125 each + $10 service charge) and you get more with the $99 season tickets.The only reason I said destroy it was that the students will do fine without having to pay (or have mommy and daddy pay) the $30 membership fee for a t-shirt and crap props. They could sell the t-shirt as a fundraiser for $10-15, and probably make more money as some students who do not go to games will buy them. And yes, winning will solve these problems of complaining of loud/quiet students.

It could be worse: we could be Baylor.
You mean 16-0, #4 Baylor?
You guys can point the finger at the product on the floor all you want, but there is more to it than that. A couple other people have already shared similar experiences to my own in this thread, and the McDoormat and bad basketball argument just doesn't hold up to it.
I was a student ticket holder throughout the transition to CA in the mid 2000s. I attended games before CA. I attended games when one end was CA and the other was general students, and I attended when it was all CA. For the time that the student section was split, there was a noticeable difference in the sections.
Were you at the game last night? Our group had a hard time finding an open spot in the lowest section when we walked in at 6:05, 55 minutes before tipoff. Doors opened at 6:00.The general student section would arrive earlier, it would have better attendance in general
Again, this does not happen anymore. We all wear the same color t-shirt, that's it. I have never been given a code of conduct or scripted cheer in 4 years. The only thing stifling our activity was the cop standing behind us for the entire first half who asked us at halftime what all the yelling was about. I'm pretty sure CA has no control over that.creating a dress code, scripting cheers, or distributing a code of conduct (yeah, that happened in my time in CA).

Can you explain your reasoning behind disliking CA? As others have explained, there are no "organized cheers" other than the free throw arm wave (which looks pretty good IMO), the shirt policy only requires you to wear it to get into the section (a lot of people wear something else during the game), and no one has ever told me not to cheer or hinted that my obscenities were out of place. I think the only problem is that CA costs $30 extra, which really should not be that big of a deal. If there is something else, please enlighten me.
If this is the only thing that CA does (charging, which is BS in its own way), then it's drastically different than it was just 3 years ago.
