Carnesecca Arena Advantage?

It's interesting to see Villanova play only three games last year at the Wells Fargo Center and now only four this year. Playing most of their games at their smaller arena.

Despite their success they have a tough time filling WFC against out of market schools.

I remember when we used to play Nova at the Palestra--what a great arena

Places like WFC  and MSG are expensive. NOVA has proven that you don't need a fancy arena to be successful

I think you guys are crazy. It's great that we beat butler. But No one wants to go to union turnpike. If we win games we will have no trouble getting people to the garden. If we lose no one is coming wherever we play even if it's free.

I prefer Alumni hall games to the garden.  I'ld imagine there are other Long Island/ Queens residents and recovering alchoholics that feel the same way.

I'm a long walk or a short drive away from CA but I would rather go to MSG for a game.  A much better experience.  CA is so uncomfortable.
