Hornets Nest Has to be the Worst Venue in the BS

I just saw the Hornet's Nest on Big Sky TV for the first time. Are you kidding me? My kids' high school gym was bigger and better than this. Is this really their basketball arena or are they repairing or building their real arena?

Thank you for pointing out what we already know... :roll:
 
"As Northern Colorado begins its Big Sky Conference Era in 2006, the building is entering its 31st year and saw its biggest changes occur in summer 2006. As part of a $16 million dollar student fee referendum, the building received a much needed makeover. New chairback seats were installed along with a new sound system and a message and scoreboard center to go along with renovated restrooms, ticket center and entrance. After the installation of chairback seats, the building's seating capacity went from 4,500 to 2,734, creating a much more intimate feeling for spectators."

No doubt Hornet Gym is terrible and a new arena is on the books (more like in purgatory), but what UNC did to their old gym is definitely not something in our plans. I'm sure the UNC digs are nice after their rehab, but slapping on a new coat of paint and reducing capacity is definitely not something I would go around blowing a trumpet about. :roll:

Turns out I'm wrong. Over on the league board, a Montana fan just posted the scenarios. There's still a scenario where the BSCT will be held in the Hornet's Nest. Wow!
