The PMAC currently hosts 4 sports teams with 3 being in the same season (MBB, WBB & gymnastics). Throw in LSU wanting to host more concerts, shows & other sporting events and that’s not feasible from November-March.

Keep the PMAC for basketball & you only have to worry about scheduling events around gymnastics (there’s about 6 home meets a year).

Dozens of other facilities seem to make it work with zero issues.

And LSU is not building a new arena and leaving the basketball team out of it.

You are aware that throughout the country many arenas are able to do this with ease….
