Several people have proposed various plans for
SB ticketing, @VTChip and @laphroaig to name a couple. Whit, and his cronies, Chris Helms and Brad Wurthman have been beyond intransigent and well into obstructionist. This is just stubbornness on their part. They have offered various "excuses" (I can't call them reasons for sake of accuracy. All ticketing is handled by a vendor (i.e., red and green dots, ticket sales, receiving money, etc.). VT currently sells tickets for four sports (FB, MBB, WBB and BB). As far as event presence, RHINO is already at SBP, so any increases by them would be negligible. Whit et al just doesn't want to do it. Probably, IMHO, because of NIH (Not Invented Here). One wouldn't be absurd in suspecting some form of misogyny on their part.
Also, IMHO, in response to VTChip's fundraising efforts, the aforementioned triumvirate, have done just about anything and everything to thwart VTChip's fundraising efforts for SB. VTChip has been PNGed by the AthDept, but is just too nice to say so. I'm not so encumbered.
