Now that it looks like we have a strong coach what facility upgrades do we need to consistently attract the talent necessary to compete?

All new PMAC? Coaching facilities with new technology? Better athletic dorms?

Chime in please

You serious, Clark?

PMAC interior is great, nice seats and state of the art video board. Practice facilities that rival any college hoops team.

Got the coach....Just win now

How could they not have built an office in the new facility?

Alleva already mentioned doing renovations to the exterior that would include removing the giant ramps. Also mentioned new suites added, slightly reducing capacity.

I’m sure that it’ll look great once they’re done

No reason for a new arena.

No need for a new arena. The PMAC is legit

I'd like for them to reconfigure the lower bowl seating in the future though. Make it more rectangle as opposed to oval and get the fans, including the students, closer to the floor.

The roof needs a little cleaning. I think taking out some seats and trying to add press boxes or some premium seating is needed. 10,000 seats would be perfect.

And like S said, how the hell did they not put offices in the practice facility?

Here you go

He's not so much complaining about them as much as he says they need some updates.

What was built was sort of short sighted and just a patch for the program. It's a long way from the dungeon, but definitely not what it needs to be.

An average human has little to no leg room at all in those seats.

It just looks like a 1970s UFO from the outside, you know just like the 1970s UFO looking Superdome.

The arena is fine, but they need to relocate the student section and media. Our student section used be filled up every game when it was on the sidelines. There's just a sliver of decent seats for the students, and by decent, right behind the friggin backboard. Give the students both ends of the court or at least a little more room down low. The media needs to be in a different spot.

I love the PMAC, tons of program history and memories for me in there. I don't see any need for a brand new facility. Give the PMAC some love and it will be good to go..

one thing the powers at be need to do to the PMAC is get the damn press seats away from the student section. That is prime real estate for season ticket holders. Come on Will Wade. Put the media out the lower bowl area.
