Or less. There are a few sections I don't think anyone has sat in all season
The capacity is 15k right now. When we have a semi decent team, we can regularly draw 10-12k. I'll settle for a few games of less than capacity if it means we can still get 12k in there if we're doing well.

14k lower bowl, 6k upper. Curtain can be drawn around upper for non-conf games (curtain will have awesome graphics)
Larger floor with collapsible floor seats meaning arena can be further shrunk to 12k for other events like W basketball and be even more flexible for concerts, trade shows, camps, conferences, conventions or NCAA tournament hosting.
This also assumes the admin will stop having a stick up their butt about renting the arena out.
Arena concourse will be split in two, East side will not only feature the coaches offices and view into the basketball training facility (which can be closed to the public if desired) and will be lined with the history of Alabama basketball, including all hardware won, SEC trophies and highlight reels of big games and all americans, ring display case and a wall of retro posters and program guides.
The West will feature a set up like the Mal Moore facility, with cases for each of Alabama Gymnastics' 6 National Championships. A display in the middle will highlight coach Sarah Patterson. The hall will similarly show clips from program history and will be the home to the gymnastics offices and brand new practice facility.

Our new arena must also be able to accommodate hockey.

Damn I hope Coleman will be rocking tomorrow now that the students are back and this is HUGE, but winnable game.

As good as we've played defense and rebounded lately, we can definitely win tomorrow

We need Norris to quit sucking and make those open 3's
We'll also need a big game from Hall or Taylor.
Our defense is good enough to hang with them.

Not if we come out of halftime like we did against Vandy and Moo State.

We can't take any isolation bad shot, because we don't have that 1 on 1 scorer..instead penetrate and kick to some open shooters. Also need to grab defensive boards and push it up the floor and Shannon Hale and Hall need to continue to run the floor.
I think we can pretty much defend a lot of teams in the SEC, save UK..our offense needs to play with more fire & drive and quit with senseless turnovers.

If Davis can start getting 12-15 points a game, that would help us tremendously.

I wouldn't count on it..way too streaky and relies on outside jump shots for majority of his points

We're a basketball school anyway! Let's beat Florida tonight!

If there's a positive after last night's game, it looks like Trendon Watford is a big Bama fan and hates Auburn according to his twitter.

68-58. Bama wins
Posted on 1/10/17 at 11:35 am to JordonfortheJ
I like your enthusiasm. I hope we can get some consistent scoring.
Posted on 1/10/17 at 11:57 am to Teague
One can hope.
We can't go cold because UF will run away with their scoring. We can't let them get up by double digits.

I'm hurting big time from our loss last night. I know, I shouldn't take a game that serious, but I do. Last thing I need is for us to go on a 10 minute scoring drought against Florida tonight and lose. I'll lose it

Does someone need to go on and start the recruiting thread for next year?

I'm already pissed about class starting tomorrow. After last night if we lose a close game tonight, this week can't end fast enough
