Men's Basketball | Women's Basketball | Legacy Court

The Lloyd Noble Center on the campus of the University of Oklahoma in Norman features excellent seating and some of the best college basketball in the nation. Since its opening in 1975, nearly four million fans have come through the LNC doors in anticipation of a Sooner victory.

A $17.1 million expansion and renovation project in 2001 added key improvements. A 70,000-square-foot addition to the south side of the facility included two new full-sized practice courts: one for men's basketball and one for women's.

Both OU basketball programs also boast new offices, film rooms, training rooms, locker rooms, spa/sauna rooms and a full-sized weight room in the addition.

The project also enhanced the Lloyd Noble Center for the wide variety of public events it hosts, including graduations, concerts and large meetings. Improvements included an expanded LNC parking lot, renovated arena ceiling and a modernization of the electrical systems. The multi-million dollar, state-of-the-art video scoreboard that debuted in 1997 was the first video board in the Big 12 Conference.

University of Oklahoma President David L. Boren said, "We are very proud to be the home of world class facilities for both men's and women's basketball. Thanks to the generosity of Sooner fans and alumni, our facilities are second to none in the United States."

ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas echoed, "Oklahoma's basketball facilities are magnificent - second to none. Everything is top of the line and very well conceived. These facilities communicate the same message the Sooners do through their play - a commitment to pursuing excellence."
