[I]In previous years, one Orange Club donation allowed fans to buy premium season-tickets to both sports. Now, the school will charge separate donations for each. Information about the plan is [URL='http://www.cuse.com/sports/2016/11/9/fb-tickets-information.aspx']available on the SU Athletics website.[/URL]

The end result is that stand-alone season tickets in premium sections for football will be made less expensive, the price change for stand-alone basketball tickets will be uncertain until season-ticket prices are released and the cost to fans purchasing both will likely rise.
 
"Prior to our move in this direction football and basketball were combined," said Anthony Di Fino, the school's associate athletics director for business development. "We've created an independent model. When you boil it down, the NBA isn't the NFL. There's two different entities. Two different buyers."

In an effort to reach out to fans who will be impacted by a price increase, Di Fino said, Syracuse is providing an array of benefits for fans who buy premium season-tickets to both sports. Depending on the size of the Orange Club donation, options include a brunch with Dino Babers, various open practices or a party on football's signing day.

"The past model what it was doing was allowing fans to add on football (tickets) at a rate that wasn't consistent with our peers," Di Fino said. "We're now in line with the industry. The Orange Club donations support our athletes. That's what we're really driving at so we can compete with our peers in the ACC. Every dollar helps. I think our fans see that."
