This is a very good one. Went there when they played Tennessee 6 or 7 years ago with the VanVleet/Baker undefeated team and it was crazy. Game was in their downtown off campus arena so I didn't get the full impact but it was really good.

The small arenas in the Big East are awesome but are really only used for small non con games. They basically all play in larger NBA or NBA type arenas which kinda sterilizes they atmosphere IMO but I understand why they do it. A school like Providence just doesn’t have the numbers to make the student section in a place like Dunkin Donuts center crazy

I think you're remembering the Al McGuire Center which is/was cool. They now play in the Fiserv Forum about 15 minutes away and doesn't have the character.

Add to the list McKeon Pavillion where St. Mary's College plays. Old school type arena.

Allen Fieldhouse isn't lesser known but "Pay Heed"
