Pauley poll
Since there is so much talk about the Pauley Pavilion project, I thought I would post a poll to get a consensus of what folks think.

About Inside UCLA
This is Brian Dohn's sixth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.About this Entry

I understand why they want to keep the history of Pauley but its not worth the cost. They should build a new arena that pays tribute to Pauley but fits with the modern age. If the Yankees can replace Yankee Stadium then why cant UCLA build a new Pauley that is modern and respects tradition. They could build monuments and incorprate the old design into the new arena.
i agree with anon. You spend 2xs as much or more to get a compromised design trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. I have been on too many projects where afterwards you see that it is best to tear down and start all over. Without sounding callous, maybe wait until after Coach is gone to start with the new arena.
