Tickets are now all mobile. Easy to transfer them without stubhub needing to be on site.
chris@whoknows.com has emails for 75% of alums at all schools to easily get the marketplace to tip
MOGL exists so athletes can be incented to help
Are you interested in addressing this Unmet Need?

@Josh Lampley Yes reducing the selling fee to 0% for donors and verified alumni would create enough of a savings to get supply onto the marketplace, even from professionals.
The big win for fans is that even with a market rate buyer fee of 15%, buyers will benefit from the lack of seller fee to the tune of around $10 for a $100 ticket. For a family outing of 4+ tickets, that could be a material savings to pay for food/bev.
Would be fun to play with the buyer fee being lower for certain school groups....

It could be cool to see the schools subsidizing the 10% fee for donors at a certain level as an added perk and might encourage use of mytickets over competitors.

is "stubhub replacement" really an unmet need?
The problem to solve here is exhorbitant ticket transfer and authentication fees for consumers due to duopolistic industry forces. ;)
The solution, which I agree needs to be fan driven, is a marketplace that can afford lower fees because it doesn't need to do consumer marketing to drive buyers.
I'm on an alumni list at UCLA Anderson School and frequently receive emails about 2-4 tickets avail for a show or game so can confirm demand and scale.
For further MVP research: all Schools have ticketing deals with a software provider that include secondary ticketing rights. It would appear ND has a deal with both a software provider (evenue) and a secondary provider (stubhub).
Seems to me the real unmet need here is what to do with mytickets.com which is a great domain. Happy to talk about solutions to that.
