There’s still a respectable middle ground between where we are and the Blackham days though. Truthfully, the CD has never been an appropriate venue for mid major collegiate basketball nor will it ever be. In actuality, we should be playing in a venue very similar to the Legacy Center in Lake Charles, with MAYBE a thousand or so more seats. I’d love to see this university with at least one venue it has a chance to consistently sell out. As that will most likely never happen, people are going to need to come around to the idea that averaging 4K-5K would be a significant accomplishment (regardless of how many seats remain empty).
    Best bet, would be to demolish Blackham and build a 4k seat arena there. Blackham is just an eye sore and hardly gets used nowadays.

    The University barely has enough funds to maintain what it has. Asking for a new Blackham is pointless.

    Filling the lower sections with the upper deck closed off would create a great atmosphere in the dome. That should be goal #1. And its very do-able.

    First "conference" game vs Tech should be held there.

    We had that against Marshall in 2023 when the Cajun Chicken came back. I think attendance was around 5,500, and the place was rocking. If we can do that in the near future, that would be impressive.

    Blackham is a dump. Fire Marshall would probably have an opinion on playing another game there.
