When i left in 1995 the JU Dolphins used to play their basketball home games at the old Jacksonville Coliseum downtown. So now the ''new'' arena has been built does JU or UNF play their games there. If not who uses the arena??

Vacant! A hockey team used to play their, but I think they closed up.

Its a nice arena. About 4000 seat shy of being NBA ready, but it could be renovated.

I went to see Prince, And 1 Hoops and WWE Wrestling there. Its a whole lot better then the coliseum.

The only regular tenants are still the JU men's bball team.

Other than that, they get special events like concerts, the regional rounds of the NCAA basketball tourney, hosting the UF vs UCF basketball game in December, etc.

Yeah, that was the only game the team played in the US! Of course, that team was a stinker...
