That basically is the exact same layout as the inside of our arena
Yes. Ole Miss Pavilion was definitely a model. I very much enjoyed going to the Pavilion the February before covid shut everything down - especially since we won big. But it really is a very nice arena. Hope to get back before too long.

It looks like it will have a standing room only area around the top of the lower level like Auburn, probably a good move. It's nice to be at concessions and all be able to get a glance at the floor

Looks way nicer than the toilet dump Oklahoma plays in.
All the new SEC money coming your way, no doubt a new arena is too. I really llok forward to Bama/ Oklahoma games.

No. Business in front, party in back. You know, the Mullet House.
Besides, we already trademarked The Barn (tm), I hope.

Absolutely correct. You can't make students walk multiple miles to the game and expect those seats to be filled. Place it as close to dorms/ other student housing as possible.

That’s damn good looking arena

Isn't that similar to the PMAC? Honest question. I've never seen the PMAC lit up bright like that but know it's round seating.

In all seriousness, looks like a good upgrade. The whole conference is improving in basketball and facilities are a part of it.

Do all angled roofs look like barns to you...?

The only Bam worth a damn is SOG so tell him congrats on the new arena.

I think it is a great spot although I would have preferred closer to the river at the back of the Bryce property.
It's still on Campus Drive so I don't think it will be a big deal for students. A lot of the newer dorms on on the North end of of the campus near Jack Warner and is would be a short walk for them.

I don’t like the design but still better than Dumpman

ETA: exterior looks better in the linked video than the original still posted. I like the interior.

Looks nicer than all of those and much nicer than Auburns but that doesn’t surprise anyone.

Looks good to me. Lighting might suck for day games but other then that it’s a massive upgrade over Coleman. Congrats Bama.
