Shaka is going to be going back to the A-10 soon. Obvious his style won’t work like it did at VCU. Their current arena seats 16,500. It costed $34M to build the Frank Erwin Center(about $140M today). Sure attendance is going down, but is it going down so much that Texas is cutting out 6.5k seats? They must have some really good practice facilities because they will only get limited use of that building per year.

Texas was 36th in the country at 10,490 per game last season and are averaging about 100 over that this year, so it looks to be appropriate. 

Like I said, they may or may not have a practice facility. I don’t know. But Texas is a money monster and has it to blow on a $300mil arena, which is insane but true. 

 

Edit: Their practice facility is pretty Cook Hall-esque.

Curtis Jones leading scorer in Oklahoma St.’s game against Central Arkansas with 23

Good for him.  The timing maybe wasn't the best for him to leave mid-season, but IMO best for both parties in the long run.  Hope he has a solid career.

Glad you mentioned this game, I was asleep at the wheel. I saw Penn St-Alabama on the SEC network in the DirectTV guide and thought it was some replay of one of their football games from years ago lol

Unfortunately for those who are so worried about our ranking compared to Marquette’s... last night didn’t help.

I find the "How can Team A be ranked above Team B when Team B beat them?" crowd to be incredibly annoying.
