Ranking every SEC basketball stadium by seating capacity
Ranking every SEC basketball stadium by seating capacity The Georgia Bulldogs are not known for having the best basketball program in the SEC, but the Dawgs were part of the best conference in men's basketball during the 2024-2025 season when a record-breaking 14 (of 16) SEC teams made March Madness. The Florida Gators ended up as the national champions to cap the SEC's elite season. That means 87.5% of SEC basketball fan bases had a team that made the 2024-2025 NCAA Tournament. The Georgia Bulldogs were one of those teams to make March Madness. They went 20-13 in the 2024-25 season, good enough to earn a No. 9 seed in March Madness. The Bulldogs can welcome up to 10,253 fans in Stegeman Coliseum and in 2024-2025 those fans were treated to a Georgia team that reached new heights not seen in years. Stegeman Coliseum ranks just 13th in maximum seat capacity among all SEC basketball stadiums. Despite that, Georgia was still able to beat Kentucky and Florida in Stegeman Coliseum in 2024-2025, showing that UGA still has a strong home-court advantage. Ranking all 16 SEC men's basketball stadiums by capacity Tennessee Volunteers (Stadium: Thompson-Boling Arena, Max Capacity: 21,678) Kentucky Wildcats (Rupp Arena, 20,500) Arkansas Razorbacks (Bud Walton Arena, 19,368) South Carolina Gamecocks (Colonial Life Arena, 18,000) Alabama Crimson Tide (Coleman Coliseum, 15,383) Missouri Tigers (Mizzou Arena, 15,061) Vanderbilt Commodores (Memorial Gymnasium, 14,316) LSU Tigers (Pete Maravich Assembly Center, 13,215) Texas A&M Aggies (Reed Arena, 12,989) Oklahoma Sooners (Lloyd Noble Center, 11,528) Texas Longhorns (Moody Center, 10,763) Mississippi State Bulldogs (Humphrey Coliseum, 10,575) Georgia Bulldogs (Stegeman Coliseum, 10,523) Florida Gators (Exactech Arena at the Stephen C.

Barcelona captain reaches agreement with Galatasaray despite initial doubts
In a surprising twist to Barcelona's summer transfer window, Turkish outlet Fanatik (h/t Mundo Deportivo) reports that club captain Marc-Andre ter Stegen has reached an agreement with Galatasaray, signalling a potential end to his long and decorated tenure at Camp Nou. It is known that while the German goalkeeper still has a contract with Barcelona until 2028, he has grown increasingly unsettled due to the ongoing uncertainty surrounding his role and the club's long-term sporting project. Advertisement Despite Ter Stegen's recent public statements expressing his desire to remain at Barça, the situation appears to be shifting rapidly behind the scenes. Ter Stegen is ready to leave According to the outlet, Ter Stegen is ready for a new challenge, and Galatasaray are keen to pounce. The Turkish giants, fresh off a high-profile coup in the form of Leroy Sane from Bayern Munich, appear to be making a bold statement about their ambitions. Negotiations between Galatasaray and Barcelona have not yet reached the final stages, but the Turkish club's strategy is clear. Galatasaray want to sign Ter Stegen. (Photo by) Advertisement They want to secure Ter Stegen on a free transfer or, at the very least, a symbolic fee so they can redirect the bulk of their budget towards covering his significant wages. As such, it is said that they are ready to offer him €5 million net per season. While letting a player of Ter Stegen's calibre go without a substantial fee might seem unthinkable under normal circumstances, the Blaugrana could be tempted if it helps them clear his high salary from their books and avoid paying out the final three years of his contract. At 33, Ter Stegen still has plenty of years left at the top level, but with Joan Garcia already brought in for €25 million as a long-term successor, the writing could be on the wall. Advertisement Financial fair play remains a serious challenge for Barcelona, and reducing the wage bill is a clear priority this summer. Offloading one of their highest earners, especially if the goalkeeper himself is open to the move, would help balance the books and open the door for further reinforcements.

Internal tension grows as Barcelona must fulfil major condition before signing a winger
According to a fresh update from Mundo Deportivo, the internal debate at Barcelona surrounding the signing of Nico Williams is growing louder and more complex by the day. While the 22-year-old winger has shown clear interest in joining the Catalan club and even had his agent, Felix Tainta, meet with sporting director Deco last Friday in Barcelona, doubts remain strong within the club hierarchy. Advertisement Barcelona are actively looking to reinforce the squad this summer, particularly on the wings, but the path to bringing in a high-profile player like Nico is riddled with contradictions and complications. Sources within the club admit that there is no unanimous agreement on whether pursuing the Athletic Club winger is the right move, especially considering what unfolded last summer and the financial realities they are still grappling with today. Issues in signing Nico Williams While Nico's desire to wear the Barça shirt is no longer in question, the real issue lies in financing the operation. Athletic Club have made it clear that they will not entertain negotiations and they will only accept the activation of the player's release clause, which, including the Consumer Price Index adjustment, would cost around €64 million. Barcelona cannot sign Nico Williams just yet. (Photo by) Advertisement On top of that, the clause must be paid in full upfront, a condition that presents a major financial hurdle for a club still recovering economically and already having committed over €25 million for goalkeeper Joan Garcia. Need more sales What remains clear is whether it is Nico or another winger, no major signing will be possible unless significant player sales occur. The club has made it a point to communicate that any transfer of such financial weight must be preceded by an exit that replenishes their funds. The interest in Nico has not gone away, and the player himself is reportedly willing to wait. However, the next few weeks could be decisive. Without a key departure, Barcelona may once again find themselves admiring the winger from afar, unable to act on their interest due to constraints that are as financial as they are strategic.
