Looks like DePaul will be 0-1 to start the season.

That could really be a nice home court advantage if DePaul could get the players they need to start winning. It looks like the noise level could get intense with 10,000 fans that close to the floor. Sort of like at X. Right now it will take some time, but a really good facility for the future!

If only they didn't stick the student section up in the second tier. Terrible decision.
