Here is a photo of the end of one of the women’s games. Maybe I’ll take some pictures during the men’s games

talk about keeping the crowd far from the action, could grief the setup looks so cheap. Typical for CUSA unfortunately

It’s really fine. My photo makes it seem farther. I was also at the very top of the lower seating bowl

But still, look at all of that space between the front row of the stands and media row.   That's gotta be what? at least 20 feet?   ... just dead space.
Why not move the court & those temp stands where the bands are closer to the actual seating?

Side note re:UTSA/So.Miss

@Andrew will be happy to know that UTSA is set up for more success moving forward in the tournament as they had an eight man rotation as compared to those idiots from Southern Miss who only played seven players. So. Miss is so screwed now. what were they thinking?

The Star is a terrible venue for basketball.

They were saving their players’ legs for the next game.

Last year it was literally right next to the stands, during Covid, why on earth would they move it back!!!

Insane how incompetent this conference is, that’s so far away

I hope AAC keeps the tournament in Ft. Worth.

New too and I think they will.  Commissioner Aresco seems very bully on it being there and it sounds like they have developed a good relationship over the years.

The A10 tournament is being held in the Capital One Arena (DC).  Looks amazing and makes me feel ashamed of what we are using in DFW.

I disagree. I have enjoyed pretty much every game I have watched at this venue since it started in 2018

I think Jerry wants us to use it and I have no problem.  It’s a great location, good parking and an east trip for our fans.

So awful to be able to drive just up the road and easily park and walk in to watch r team play…. 
 

oh…. Also so awful to be able to see multiple games at once and not have to leave the venue to see another team… also how awful to be in walking distance if good food…. How awful….

No one said anything bad about the location, but I also think you’re just overly happy they can sub in a second court if the first one gets worn out.

The CAA was also held in DC.

Aaaannndd, getting back to actually talking about basketball games…Rice is running back door courts on pretty much every play.  
 

Unless Charlotte finds a solution, we’ll see the Owls tomorrow

[CMJ]

LA Tech also having a good fight with Marshall so far.  Herd not rolling over.

[CMJ]

Barring a collapse, it'll be the Owls tomorrow.

Possibly a silly question:  does our pep band travel to Frisco?

They better. Every other school has had their band here

UTEP is throwing ODU down a flight of stairs.

[Talon90]

No one wants to play UTEP right now.  They are going to be an extremely tough out.  Glad they are on the other side of the bracket.  They are a different team with Keonte Kennedy back.
