BUILD THIS MAN A NICE BASKETBALL ARENA

For the love of all things holy build Nate a new Basketball Arena with a solid gold private shitter in his water closet.

Build it, and make it at least 12,000!! We aren’t the Barn and don’t need a tiny arena! Fan base is growing!

The last rumor I heard was that the University and City of Tuscaloosa were going to make the arena a joint venture.

Just invest in silver on the interim.

Nothing less than 12000. When you are making a new arena once in 60 years get your moneys worth. Don’t skimp.

I think the joint venture with the city is the way.

I also think fans value a new arena more than Nate does. As long as amenities for players and NIL remain competitive, I think he’s happy

Duke has a small arena, as does baylor.

And are half the enrollment of Bama. That’s the point.

Want to grow the fanbase? Make sure enough students can get into the games and don’t price out all casual fans from the arena.

I understand the fundraising and all is going well. Oats would not have signed a new contract if he was not satisfied with things.
Even Greg B commented on things. And by the way would something have to be torn down to build the new one?

Put the blue hairs half way up and the students on the floor, imo

That's the problem though. If this gets done, it is going to involve primo real estate getting handed to corporate and individual donors that will not show up to middling games and never be a huge impact on the atmosphere the opponent must enjoy.

One of the reason college basketball is what it is, is because it was never wholly sold out to monied interests like college football. The best schools in the sport largely had a good enough arena already and don't have to put their hands out for funding quite the same way. That allows their venue to be for the students instead of some old fart or their business that cut the check to make it happen.
