It has to be looked at as an multi-use facility to make more money for the school. I get moving it off campus slightly...maybe even downtown BR on the River.

Was coming here to say it may depend how much Shaq wants to donate. Could set a price for naming after Shaq and then name the floor for Maravich.

The Parade Grounds. I have been going to LSU's campus for 50 years and I have never seen a parade there.

Tear down Bernie Moore and build it there is the best place

I don’t know about 20,000 but I am not in favor of reducing capacity. I want at least 16,000. When I was a student in the Dale Brown era we used to fill it for just about every game and could have drawn 20k for the big games. People say those days are gone but I don’t believe it. It depends on the product on the court.

A. They JUST spent a fair amount of money renovating Bernie Moore. Immediately tearing it down seems like a bad investment.

B. If you move Bernie Moore, you've got to move (also recently expensively renovated) Carl Maddox as well. They're a combo.

Is the Centroplex still around?
Yes. The Centroplex still hosts plenty of events. Here is the seating chart and court configuration that its website says will be used for a visit from the Harlem Globetrotters in April. Capacity is listed as 8,900 for sporting events.

I used to go to concerts there 40+ years ago. It was state of the art back then but is far from it now. Would be okay for a year while the new PMAC is being built.

I've said before that the current PMAC should become a green space/plaza type commons area for tailgating, hosting college gameday, etc, OR another expansion for Mike's habitat to see if we can get that accreditation. The new arena should be where Parker Coliseum currently sits, or right next door on the site of Bernie Moore, which would obviously have to be replaced if that's where it went.

Move the track stadium over by the Box and the Tennis complex. Build PMAC at site of current track


I like this idea.

back in the 60's they played every game in the Ag Center. Just reposition it ; not sure what current use is.

20,000? Playing in front of half empty arena would not be good.
