Interesting that JD said the Well "and other locations." Any ideas what that could mean?
Good question! That's what I was wondering as well........
Let's say we only play weekend games downtown (Friday, Saturday, Sunday), because that might be the only good times to draw good crowds downtown.
If you take this season for example we played 17 games in Greenville, 9 of those games fell on a weekend (fri-sun). I wonder what would be the best venue to play the weekday games at, my best guess would be Bob Jones University, Davis Field House.
Play about 9 weekend games downtown at Bon Secours Wellness Arena.
Play about 8 weekday games at Bob Jones U. Davis Field House.
BJU would be interesting, with no beer and no FU cheers. Where is the Brown Box when you need it?
I propose playing several February games in Asheville to get unfair familiarity with shooting there. It can make a difference.

Fundraising for the arena may be further along than people think. Start listening at 14 minutes…

CSU is building an arena. $31M going from smallest to very nice. Bowl setup similar to Dins. They say 3000. SD has doubts

It’s about time. The school with both the worst football stadium and worst gym. About time, long overdue.
