There is plenty of room in the ceiling to increase the incline of the rows, especially if they decrease the number of seats. And, maybe that is the reason for the decrease in seating capacity.

They better fix the Tide Pride stuff too because just reducing capacity won't change that 2,000 sold seats go unused for weekday games.
They won't though, which is why reducing the capacity that much is kinda pointless unless they're going to move the students down there.

Hope they keep seating at 14000 anything less won't be enough for a winning team. Avery should insist on that. JMO.

This sentence from an article has me probably the most encouraged about the plans.

I'm not thrilled with that big of a reduction in seats since we have the fanbase to pack a 12-15k arena if the team is worth watching, but if they are moving fans closer to the court, and putting a student section courtside it'll make up for it.

That's pretty small. It looks great, but I'm also curious how many seats that student section is. It didn't look very big.

This sucks though to wait this long. Damn

We aren't going to bring 14k on a regular basis, no matter how good the team is.

so it's going to take them 4 years to get started?

Damn. I do like it, but that is a few minutes longer away than I was hoping. Can we at least go ahead and make the move for students to be Courtside? That might be my favorite thing about it.

Well this is annoying. Coleman Coliseum is way more in need of the reno. But alas the Football-Only crowd rules the day and gets their changes first. Wouldn't surprise me if Coleman's reno keeps getting pushed back...

definitely going to try and get the courtside club package
