Zac Selmon on Tuesday announced a change to the location of a section of student seating at Humphrey Coliseum.
The Bulldog student section will move to the sideline opposite team benches in 2023-24. Selmon also shared a seating chart that listed 14 sections inside The Hump where students can watch the games. The change means that instead of student seats being only behind the north basket, a section of the student seating will stretch across courtside. Selmon heard feedback and worked in collaboration with MSU’s student association.
Ellie Herndon, student body president, shared, “We are super excited to partner with (Mississippi State) and (Zac Selmon) to help build an exciting courtside environment in The Hump this season!”
? @msstate students!
You asked. We listened.
Key step in making The Hump the most electric atmosphere in ? → Moving a section of student seating to the sideline in 23-24!
Excited to enhance the student experience & collab with SA president @ellie_herndon on this project. pic.twitter.com/WKnyxzQF41
