In a perfect world, RU would end up with a new arena and new basketball practice facility.
One way to do that is to breath life into an old facility and that is something Nebraska did.
Some schools turned old basketball arenas into multi-sport practice facilities, Nebraska took their old 13,500 seat basketball arena and did a $20 Million renovation project on it and turned it into a premier 7,907 seat volleyball facility, complete with new amenities/upgrades (i.e. suites, concessions, restroom, new strength/conditioning facility, new locker rooms, offices, ready room, study areas, etc...)
The 13,500 seat Devaney Center opened up in Lincoln in 1976 and was total renovated 3 years ago when the basketball team moved into the new 15,147 Pinnacle Bank Arena downtown.
