New Auburn Basketball Arena: Photo Gallery

It looks very nice. It's pretty obvious why it is so small though, the smaller the arena is the larger the chance there will be of actually filling it up.

Hopefully Auburn can get it's basketball program rolling with Barbee.

The reason it's obviously so small is because we're talking about a basketball arena in the south.

MLB stadiums have gone this route as well, we had some really obscenely large stadiums for a long time and now they all seem to be down to a 40-50K fan level. Less money on seating that won't get used on a regular basis, more money on improvements within the stadium.

It's a Husker post in an Auburn thread. There is zero paranoia...it's called par for the course. But thanks for the concern.


Anyway, not gonna let the young Bammer ruin yet another thread with his drivel.


The arena is plenty big enough to be a formidable place to play. The rest is up to Barbee and Co.

I'm looking forward to seeing some games in it.

Looks great, a tad small, but your AD knows the crowds better than I do.

For Auburn, its about perfect.

Now, HOPEFULLY it will be "too small" in about 2-3 years after Barbee takes us to the tourney 2 years in a row and we win 20+ games. That's the plan.
