Littlejohn Coliseum, the 10,000 seat multipurpose venue at Clemson University home to its Division I men and women's basketball programs, has received final approval to proceed with its $63.5 million addition and renovation.
Construction will begin after graduation ceremonies in April. For the 2015-2016 season, ,en's basketball games and graduation ceremonies will relocate to Greenville's Bon Secours Wellness Arena. Women's basketball games will be played at Clemson University's Jervey Gymnasium. Construction should be completed by August 2016.
Clemson games will be in Greenville next year which will be fun. They should make the permanent home court in Greenville because they would have more fans at the games especially during the week.
I think it'd certainly help with attendance. I can understand driving however much the extra time is to Clemson to see a football game, but to drive that extra time to see a basketball game in Clemson is a tough draw...
The average attendance of men's home basketball games at Clemson is roughly equal to the average attendance of the Drive and the Road Warriors combined. Once the novelty wore off, I doubt playing in Greenville would help attendance at all, and I think it's a very bad idea to make it difficult for students to attend the games.

Are you suggesting that students attend games now in any meaningful numbers?
I'm a Tennessee fan, but I'm looking forward to some Clemson games in Greenville next year. Wish they had the Vols on the schedule.
