Coleman gets dumped on around here, mainly for it being dark and having a poor seating arrangement, but it’s really not that bad.

It’s nicer than several other SEC arenas.

I've been in Memorial Gym for a few games. Bama is rated too high.

With interest rates rising and the economy uncertain, it will be awhile before Bama builds a new arena. I think they will do a remodel, sadly.

Hate to get sentimental but

I don't hate Memorial at Vandy.

It's actually a gymnasium and I got tired of the cookie-cutter aspect of venues decades ago. It's weird, no doubt, but respect to keeping something that works going and not just changing for the sake of changing.

Much criticism toward Vandy athletics is justified. But ranking Vandy’s basketball arena dead last is just wrong and shows ignorance.
