If DePaul had a 10-15k arena in Lincoln Park or even if they played at the united center it would help their recruiting and following so much.

they play at all state arena like 30 mins from campus, 45-60+ with traffic. Hour+ from Downtown. No body going out there to see those games.

they don’t play at All State Arena anymore. They have a new stadium in South Loop, still not ideal, but much, much better than Rosemont. I went to a game there already this season and likely would have passed on the tickets if the game was still in Rosemont

That unc score :picard:
I been saying these 1 and done schools are done, that shyt bound to catch up and well here we are

Funny thing is we haven't been a "1 and done" school because until last year we ain't been getting that type of talent. Ironically, us being a "1 and done" school would probably have us in a much better position than we were last night.

I'm an OG and I remember them playing at Rosemont when Joey Meyer was the coach. I try to catch some of those old games on YouTube for nostalgia reasons. The yearly matchup with punk ass Notre Dame lol

Southside,Chicago
would be dope if DePaul put together a great season
It’s sad that Chicago produces so many hoopers and all our programs are pretty weak. With all the nikkas that come out of Chi, it’s no excuse how DePaul, Loyola, UIC, shyt even Chicago state shouldn’t be making tournament runs every year.

glad to see DePaul making some noise tho, I think more hoopers will chose to stay in state/in city if they see city programs like DePaul having good seasons.

DePaul ain’t been in the tournament since 2004:snoop:
