Arena Update

Man, maybe that's just the full facility? I wonder if the arena part can be ready while they work on other portions of the building.

Even if it's just for the last half of the NEC schedule and the tournament.

Is what it is. Was an ambitious timeline. Would rather have it done right than done fast.

Hearing that January/February is still the goal, and early season games will be on campus at the Student Rec Center.

It is coming along. Check out pix from Aug 1 here.

Okay, that sounds better. So the arena will be on track for some games, but the full building and convention space may not be until April.

Early games at the Rec Center would be such a better experience than playing at Palumbo or PPG. I'd rather have 900 fans in a sold out tiny gym than 1300 in a huge arena.

100% agree with the games on campus.
