Wildcats Basketball, volleyball, and wresting are looking for a home for the 2017-2018 season. I'm just saying. http://www.nusports.com/news/2016/6/13/ ... 4c6120e804 If you were NU, what are the suitable options that come to mind besides Loyola? Local high schools? Evanston, New Trier, etc. Are these places big enough for basketball? Would they play at the United Center, AllState, UIC Pavillion, the new Depaul Stadium? As for women's volleyball, it would be a sight to see Shane Davis coaching inside Gentile again on a regular basis. |

LU 86 wrote: Kelly and his crew can't raise 5k for a Spain trip Gosh, I didn't even know they were planning a trip to Spain. I just looked it up on the website. Is it cancelled? Loyola Men's Volleyball went to Italy recently. I remember they had started crowdfunding back in January with a goal of $15,000. I don't know if they reached that goal or was close but obviously they still went. And the basketball goal was only $5,000? To clarify my original point, maybe Loyola can rent out space to Northwestern Volleyball in 2017-18. It's only 20 minutes away NU crowds are pretty good for volleyball. With Shane Davis at the helm, I almost feel like he would recommend Gentile as a potential home site. |

According to some rumblings at Northwestern, there is possibly a plan in the works for Northwestern to play its home women's volleyball games at Loyola in the Fall of 2017. However, it sounds like nothing is set in stone and it is obviously not official. It has been officially announced that Northwestern men's basketball will play at AllState Arena next season. |

I think there are 4 teams using Gentile if you count both bball and volleyball teams....might be tough to fit some one in time wise. I know for a while there were plans to build a separate volleyball facility at least for practice. Also had plans for indoor track . They keep talking about a facility on Broadway just south of Sheridan Rd. But with recent apparent cutbacks..we will see. NU considered Gentile for their mens basketball but did not think it would be sufficient for BIG10 games. I think they are thinking they may increase attendance a little by having more fans from visiting BIG10 teams. |

We could use some revenue from a limited number of events like that being farmed out. Robert Morris used to spend a lot to rent Alumni Gym and Gentile for their men's basketball home games. There were a bunch of high school tournaments and other events that used to be held at the old Gentiile as well. I'm not around campus enough to know if we're still doing anything like that, but it would be nice to get some revenue (and some notice of our campus and facilities) from hosting some events like this. |
