I'd say no if all they do is expand or fix the concourse. But if they lift the roof, put in sky boxes, and push the upper level higher so you need binoculars, then yes. It may be dated but I like the inside. There's not a really bad seat. A change for handicapped access is needed but other than that I hope they don't mess with the arena much.

We only need 8,000-8500 seats like Auburn. No need for 10,400 seats, unless it is for Women’s basketball.***

There's no "raising the roof" in the Hump. I think it's a restructuring of seating.

At some point, and sooner rather than later, we're going to need to just build a brand new arena. I'd almost rather just leave the Hump alone for a few more years and work towards a new arena than plow money into what will ultimately be a short-term fix.

I had heard that was some talk of doing something along the lines of that. Didn't seem practical to me but engineers and architects will try just about anything, once...

I don't disagree but we became pot-committed on the Hump when we built the new basketball facility on the side of it.

I like the Hump personally. I would probably be more ambitious on rebuilding the concourses around it than we are....essentially making the shell of it an entirely new facility, but I understand it will be difficult to do that and have a place to play in the meantime. Maybe we can move our games back to McCarthey.**

The Hump can be remodeled effectively - look at what UGA did with Stegeman. It's older and was way worse.

The amount of complaining about metal bleachers in that thread is fitting considering the call by the vocal minority here for metal bleachers to be added to our new place.

I thought we were finally big time when we got the wooden floor with a 24 on it.

That’s right—we had that hard rubber basketball floor. I was thinking that was just the floor underneath the wood but we played on that rubber floor!
