I barely even recognize the Hump…

[The Cooterpoot]

Y'all will b!tch about anything. Think I'll at least wait until I go to the first game in the arena before I complain.

Just f'ing win, baby.

It's better than it was. That's all. Still not what's needed.

The outside doesn't matter at all. It's the inside that matters.

Outside matters. The m17er is ugly, period. As bad as Dorman.

If people would show up (mainly students), then the inside would take care of itself. Look at where Duke plays. But again, we definitely need suites.

Talk about independent thought, you are about the most close-minded, rigid, fatalist statement-making dude on this board. I've sometimes wondered if you were a 65-year old Baptist preacher.

The Bundt cake is still not fully baked.

What matters to people that go to the games is the amenities inside and their seats. What matters to those that watch on TV is the atmosphere shown on the inside. Nobody cares about what the outside looks like.

Does anyone know how much we spent on this?

I think $50M

Found this on the architects website:

Why are we treating the hump like it’s the college basketball version of Fenway and must be preserved at all costs?

 

[JacksonCPAdawg]

after the upgrades.**

I’m guessing/hoping this is the non club level side which doesn’t show what they did.

this looks almost exaclty the same

How much would a new coliseum cost?

We've been bleeding money since Covid. I agree we need a new coliseum, but where do we get the money?

We need updates to the football stadium and a new coliseum. How do we fund basketball with years of lagging attendance? I'm not saying we can't, I just want to know how we fund it.

You borrow it at historically low rates 5 years ago.

Looks like a mid December game vs a directional school.

That's what I thought. We would kill ourselves trying to finance something now.

I don't know how we know if it's what we need or not. Most of us haven't been in it yet. The MF'er isn't even finished, and people seem to be going pre-apeshit. "The Hump won't be as good as I deserve!!!" LOL

Actually, I'm glad y'all care so much so I don't have to. I appreciate everyone's fervor. I seem to be the only one who isn't that worried about it. Give em hell boys!
