South Carolina's Colonial Life Arena is one of the newest, largest, most modern facilities in the country.
And the UK fans say thank you for making it so nice for them to occupy

That's definitely not a recent photo of Reed.
1. Too many people in the stands.
2. We've drastically reduced the size of the logo in the center of the court.
I fricking hate our new court. Wasn't a fan of the parquet floor, but the giant T-star in the middle of the state outline was fricking badass.
What we have now is bland as shite

Occupy and get your asses beat. I was sitting there when The Brown Dwarf Devon Downey hung 38 on y'all right after Obama had called your team to congratulate them on being ranked #1. I was sitting with Eric Hyman and Mrs Dodie and the place was rocking - Kentucky fans were not saying much.
But I will give Kentucky fans this - they travel in basketball like the rest of the SEC does in football. They will take-over your arena if the tickets are available. It always amazes me to see them lined-up outside the Colonial Life Arena waiting for General Admission tickets before our games. They'll line up all the way down Lincoln Street up to the Tourist Center, no doubt about it.

I thought SC's was nice, but I was only in it for a graduation.

I will try to find a link to a picture of Memorial with the new Jumbotron installed. Really nice kind of resembles the Jumbotron pictured in the OM rendering of the new arena.

Mizzou Arena isn't getting enough love here it seems. It is a pretty big arena, and even from the upper deck you feel like you are right on top of the court. I was in the middle of the upper deck on the sideline last season vs Baylor and had a great view, and will again this year when Florida comes to CoMo.
FINALLY MIZZOU ISN'T NEAR THE BOTTOM WHEN IT COMES TO FACILITIES

It looks like the OP pic was taken from the suites, so looking at the opposite side of the arena from the ones you posted

No. It was before the renovation. Ceiling/sound-system had not been re-done, no center hung scoreboard, orange seats still there.

I had a dream about a month ago that my son was recruited to play basketball at Georgia. It was weird in so many ways. I've never been to Athens. I can't name a Georgia basketball player past or present... I'm really not much of a basketball fan. Oh, and my son is only 4.
Looks like he would be playing in a pretty nice area though.

I dunno about that . . . that only gives UGA 14 more years to replace the Stegosauras. Don't see it happening in such a short time.

Well you haven't been in awhile,
It was like 5 years ago probably. The game where yall honored your 50 greatest players or something like that. Pete Maravich son sat right behind me and I didn't know why everyone kept stopping to talk to him until they honored his dad

As for MSU we still have a nice stadium just needs renovation. I mean it does hold 10,000 people.
Ours is much nicer after that addition last year of the practice facilities and trophy rooms and all that. It looks much better.

Rooms?
A shelf is all that is needed for Ms. State basketball, even then there would be extra space...
