Atlantic 10 Basketball Arenas

[@kingjro2]

Dayton has one of the best arenas out there! Love it!

[@gavinsheridan4680]

The A-10 in general is kind of a retro conference. The size and form-follows-function design of the arenas is what all of college hoops was in the 40s, 50s and 60s.

[@CreightonRabs]

9:19 Prior to its renovation in 2008, Hagan Arena was known as the Alumni Memorial FIeldhouse. The renovations resulted in the addition of an additional 1,000 seats. I've only been there once, and that was back in the mid-1990s when one of my high school classmates was playing for Rhode Island against St. Joe's.

[@coryspang7548]

Here for the Univeristy of Dayton Arena. Go Dayton Flyers ❤💙

[@VASparky]

The rivalry between VCU and Richmond is always worth the hype every year here in Virginia.

[@explosivereactionstv7414]

Fellow Virginian here. You’re absolutely right

[@neilwhitaker6284]

The Fordham one is a beauty!!! Love the exterior and interior. edit: Like the St. Joseph's one too same reasons.

[@tineye5100]

Cooper is awesome. Love the fan corners. Such an intimate venue, and when you have a big game, PPG Paints Arena is just down the street.

[@ge009]

The pool for swimming and diving at GW is actually a flight of stairs below the court, but luckily it has some windows to let natural light in. When I was an undergrad there I was the PA announcer for swimming/diving/water polo, and I still remember having chlorine in my eyes from being down there for those hours-long meets.

[@mark123655]

Just wow on that Fordham stadium

[@CrescentCitySweaters]

Just a note since I went there, when it originally opened in 1925, it was apparently one of the biggest basketball gyms in the country and people called it “the Prairie.” Vince Lombardi is an alumnus, and before he died in the 1970s, he was fundraising for a 10,500 seat arena that would have replaced the gym. On one hand, we would have lost this architectural beauty. On the other hand, a larger venue would have been a huge recruiting tool in getting local players from the Bronx at Fordham. Kareem Abdul Jabbar’s last high school game was played there as well.

I have many memories of going to ud arena when I was little.

[@liamthrawl8306]

You should do college hockey conferences. So many old and historic venues

[@TheWideWorldofStadiums]

I most likely will.

[@tmac7782]

@@TheWideWorldofStadiums has there been a big 10 bball stadiums vid? I feel like I'd be crazy if their wasn't as many other smaller conferences have been done and a big 10 hockey stadiums video has been done. Will there be one released?

[@TheCyborgXD]

Loyola is for sure one of my favorite underdog basketball teams

[@spagbol525]

Yeah, Loyola Chicago is such a goated team in the Atlantic 10. Shocking that they got stunned by St. Bona in the first round of the A10 tourney this year

[@ge009]

VCU’s arena also hosts the Virginia high school basketball championships every March, and it can get LOUD in there for those.

[@bdautch20]

GW has the worst college basketball arena I have ever been to. Incredibly cramped seating, and you have to watch the game through "railing jail" (the bars of the railing partially obstruct the view of the court from almost every seat).

[@JJontrail]

can you do an amazing stadiums in Europe again? My homecity has quite a small club but an amazing stadium: Ado den Haag.

[@brucestewart7371]

I went to the first GW game at Smith Center in ‘75. Used to get free passes to get in because my next-door neighbors brother was the sports information Director there. I could never figure out the elevated seats in the end zones. You could never see the basket in front of you. Must’ve been a 70s thing. They used to play at Fort Myer across the bridge in Arlington. Army base. They even shared the gym with American University at that time.

[@benshappell6339]

[@reymondcampos5061]

C-USA Basketball Arenas next!

[@bigwheelstuntshow1707]

From recent viewings, it feels like you've looked at too many stadiums and arenas within an incredibly short span... You try 87 types of ice cream, #88 probably won't knock your socks off. Getting some apathetic vibes. You're missing out on all sorts of interesting, if not cool, shit. Kind of mailing it in here. I love this channel. Get some Refresh Time! You got this. ~Justin

[@ThatCodeBlue]

Could you do Horizon League and American League basketball stadiums?

[@AHomelessShoe]

It's all I ever wanted

[@michaelscott358]

10:10 why is St. Louis in the Atlantic 10 Conference

[@barbarian92]

EagleBank Arena also hosts high school graduations, and it’s feels cavernous inside

[@proudhondaowner-1]

We need CAA basketball vid

[@davidwadsworth8982]

Been to games at St.Joe's Hagan, and Fordham's Rose Hill and and Tom Gola Arena . Rose Hill is the historynof College Hoops.So is Hagan,the heart of Big 5 Philly college hoops. But Gola is the loudest..

Fordham too high

[@Chaz4543]

This conference is kind of trending downwards. Its overly bloated with 15 schools and its in 3 different regions of the country (northeast, southeast, midwest) which doesn't work as well with the less money and lower budgets you have. The more richer conferences can deal with it better. Its pretty much only a 2 bid league in the NCAA basketball tournament these days. They just had to have Loyola because its in Chicago and they had recent success but is that a great long term addition, maybe not. Plus there's always a threat that the Big East will poach some of these schools. Also, Fordham's gym is old and outdated and they are only in this league because they are located in New York City so the A10 desired them. They probably belong in the Patriot league which is more their level academically and athletically which they already play in for football.

[@musyarofah1]

major A10 schools got poached by Big East (Butler, Xavier), the same way AAC schools poached the C-USA in football. It's just a matter of time until St. Louis and Duquesne jump the ship.

[@benstolen69]
