You have the seating capacity wrong. It's a nice arena, but not that nice.

I completely forgot that they moved into a new place this season. Nice upgrade.

I would expect a slightly smaller turnout when we roll into town. :wink:

Where is your vision SLY!
As a Carolina non Liker, I will say this is the kind of stuff that really shows the class of Roy Williams. He is from the area, he know Coach B from back in the day and it gives UNC fans who can't easily make the trip from the western part of the state to Chapel Hill play, an opportunity to do so. Very very classy move.
Sorta like why Duke plays in Jersey once a year! :D

About 1700 showed up tonight to watch the Bulldogs take care of VMI.. Considering that the students are still out- it was a great turn out...

A 'nice upgrade' would be a nominee for understatement of the year.. I wondered what you all would talk about now that we don't play in Justice Center any longer.. Ahh.. the memories..

King: Is Jaron Lane done for the year with the academic issues, or is there a chance they get worked out and he comes back?

I guess when Coastal's arena is complete you guys can always still pick on the BucDome- the real question is what are the excuses going to be when LU loses in a gym where the backboards aren't on the walls or when there isn't a small baseline area near the wall?

Not picking on this game either way- just bringing up some of the past excuses that have been attempted on this board previously :D

Any of you guys making the trip down?

Per usual, Jesse Sanders was pretty candid about LU's struggles yesterday:
