Congrats Winthrop - 4 NCAA's in a row

It depends on where you play, just like any other conference. UNCA won homecourt, their arena holds like 1k people max. Winthrops arena holds a little over 6k.

Just out of curiousity, would you happen to know the average seating capacity of Big South arenas?

I assume UNCA must be the smallest?

Charleston Southern 800
Coastal 1040
High Point 2565
Liberty 9000
Radford 5000
UNCA 1100
VMI 5800
Winthrop 6100

Thanks, wupike. That is quite a range.

I think Charelston Southern has room for 700

Oddly enough, that's one of the coolest places to play. It's really neat to watch a game there. But yeah, a big range. I'm pretty sure WU has the best attendence, and has for quite some time, but it's def. not as good as it could be. It's such a small conference. We want out.

^Where would you want to go to?

^Where would you want to go to?

Honestly I have no idea. We don't have a football team, so that's whats holding us back. At least that is what we are told. I would imagine the A10, or the Southern Conference.

What about the CAA?

I keep thinking you guys could be similar to George Mason in terms of profile.

Anything would be a step up. We hate the Big Suck.

We like you and Mason too much. we can't see you fight. And what's with your jerseys? they're much nicer than a lot of other schools'

Everyone says that about Winthrop's jersey's, I don't know why everyone says that.

Not sure, to be honest I don't think WU really cares where they are seeded. We have 3 top 100 RPI wins, which is better than alot of teams going to the tourney. For example Davidson, whooped us, but has zero top 100 wins. So we will see. I think a 14 is probably about where we will be.
