Penn State's Bryce Jordan Center is too big....

Penn State draws 5,000 to 11,000 for their home basketball games. Penn State should have a 10,000 seat arena, not 15,200 seats. They would probably have trouble filling 10,000 seats for a majority of their Big 10 games.

At least Ohio State is located in Columbus. NIT type seasons won't fill up 19,000 seats. Maybe they would be better off with 14,000-15,000 seats?

The Value City Arena and Nationwide Arena both seat 19,000+. It appears that the city planners feel that 19,000 seats is the magic number for the Columbus area.

Definitely too big, but even with attendance not being at capacity -- reestuart 03/21/2016 10:30AM

It appears that ice hockey may have been the driving factor -- VTHokie2000 03/22/2016 11:57AM

It seems like Ohio State may be regretting their decision -- VTHokie2000 03/20/2016 11:48PM
