Ideal for the program and community.

Not being able to get cheap tickets adds to the lure of going to games.

Wish Bama had that foresight 15 years ago when we're designing the redo of Coleman.

It's better to be smaller and rowdy, than large and half-empty. Looks pretty awesome to me.

Bud Walton is very NBA-ish.

ours is actually pretty awesome on the inside:





but it is kinda off on its lonesome:




Our campus is pretty damn big, tho. So everything is really spread out.

UF is completely renovating the O'Dome after this year. The final renderings from the winning bid aren't out yet, but we have seen some conceptual designs:



FWIW, here is one of the losing bids:

My old mans boss is one of Pearls best friends and we got to meet him a few different times. He's funny as hell and a great coach, even with the BBQ-gate baby back bull shite situation.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Mizzou Arena is pretty new, it reminds me of pro stadiums how it's laid out.

11. Mississippi state - yall are building a great baseball stadium. But what's funny is that your basketball program was very legit for many years and it seems like yall never cared. The arena looks dated as hell.


I haven't been to a ton of other venues for basketball but the inside of the hump is fine. The outside looks dated and I wish we would have renovated it just to keep up with the rest of the look around campus.


We just put up a new jumbotron this year.


Doesn't look like the outside is going to change much though because we just built a practice facility on it a couple of years ago.

Couldn't be further from the truth. The hump used to be one of the top 3 atmospheres in the league.

10. LSU- cool set up against tiger stadium and the habitat. But I think it is time yall built a new one.



Agree. The PMAC is outdated on the outside and I hate the one level circular seating design. Yeah it is awesome when it is rocking but that is the fans more than the arena itself. Hopefully there are plans for a new one to go with some of the Nicholson Corridor plans.

It looks like they could tear down the PMAC and build a new arena attached to the PF and change the facade of the PF to match the new arena.

Compared to some of the other pics posted, ours does really suck. Glad they got rid of the early 2000s elephant logo on the court though.
