best college basketball stadiums
What do u think are college basketball's top stadiums if u weren't an ISU fan?
Re: best college basketball stadiums
I'm an ISU fan, and I already know that Hilton is no longer one of the best stadiums.
Re: best college basketball stadiums
Crowd wise or actual stadiums?
Crowds...
Kentucky, Tenn, Louisville, KU, Michigan St.
Stadium wise.. I haven no idea. I haven't been to a college away game out of the state of Iowa.
In state -- ISU, UNI, Drake, IA in that order.

Sadly, Hilton Magic has been on the decline over the last few years :no:
Re: best college basketball stadiums
Best atmosphere (arena plus crowd) that I've been to:
1. Assembly Hall - Illinois - BY FAR
2. Williams Arena - Minnesota
3. Allen Fieldhouse - Kansas
4. Kohl Center - Wisconsin
5. Hilton Coliseum - would be number 2 in the past
6. McHale Center - Arizona
Worst - (tie) - Colorado, Penn State.
Would like to see games in: Gallagher-Iba Arena and Breslin Center

Great building... Im sure the 35 people who attended each game last year thought so too. :wink:
UNI was just a little too late for taking advantage of a good mens hoops following while they made their NCAA runs

A gym that seats 7,000 basically tells recruits "we have a small fan base." Same as the Knapp Center. They're both glorified high school gyms.
Compare that with other schools in your own conference - Missouri State, Illinois State, Bradley - that have big-time arenas.
