I want you to know that there is nobody who would get more excited than myself should NU have decided to up the ante in basketball, build a new arena and play bigger teams. After seeing the Bellermine's, Gannon's, and St Anselm's over the years, I would love to kick somebody'd ass (just kidding) to be the first in line for tickets to a new facility...but....I don't see the numbers as being there for NU to embark on such a mission and to actually see 30-40 million on a new arena IMHO would be a complete diservice and kick in the groin to students who actually need better resources, ie library, housing, student center et all much more than a new basketball arena.

It's the Casino now, but back when NU played there, you could not get students to move themselves about 5 miles up the road to see the games. You never saw 300-700 kids in the stands like you do at Gallagher. NU even had a bus that would take kids up there and it was a waste of time...BTW the schedule was much better then as well. One would have thought that the entire school would have turned out for the SJU game that we won over a team ranked 4th in the country but that didn't happen either.
