With BYU 🏀 trending up, what would you do to improve the Marriott Center?

This is dumb and unnecessary and wouldn't improve anything to the gameday

I've always thought it looks like a really big church building from the 70's.

Make it into an homage to the old Provo Temple design.

Nah, it's the Provo spire before it was painted white and had the Angel Moroni.

Tear down the exterior, expand the concourse. That would enhance the gameday experience.

This is the correct answer

Marriott Center is pretty good as is. Would always be nice to widen the concourse.

Yup & the empty rows on the other side because of sound & video mixing stations.

For a small donation of $100M towards NIL, anyone can have the naming rights to the stadium. Who wants them?

It seems BYU is no longer naming buildings after people, so that's probably out.

It wouldn't. It would reduce the ROC effect and hurt revenue. No positives for

Really just need more room in the concourses.

Would you rather have donors spend $5M on NIL or $5M making the concourse wider (which will save us all 3 minutes)

I think it would need to be part of a larger upgrade with some luxury upgrades.

Paint the outside royal blue. Or do something to make it look a little less dated.

It impacts half time the most. The lines for food block anyone from walking around the concourse.
