Having a new larger arena could open Lexington up to potentially hosting later rounds of the NCAA tournament. Also, by building a new arena you can put the student section closer to the floor as all other big schools do. Sure there is tradition at Rupp, but there was tradition at Memorial too. U.K. fans don't need to get up in arms, think of all the good that will come of this. Can you imagine the atmosphere of 30 or 40 thousand people cheering for the cats against Louisville or Florida. That would be tough place to play.
