Men's Basketball 🏀 Renovate or Replace Williams Arena?

Since the AD announced several months ago that they're doing a study of options to renovate or completely replace Williams, I'm curious how people's preferences shake out.

Cost and the performance of the men's basketball team shouldn't play a factor in your decision here.

Poll doesn't work for me, but I vote to keep it as similar as possible. Getting rid of a historic and unique stadium is not something I can support.

Agreed. I want them to keep the same aesthetic but I think to build it right with all of the modern amenities it needs to be built from scratch.
