There's no catchy nickname for the event or even a building in working order.
But when Olympia Entertainment president and CEO Tom Wilson stood in a dirt area outside Little Caesars Arena on Tuesday morning, announcing the Dec. 16 college basketball doubleheader, he shared a vision.
Michigan will face Detroit Mercy in the first college basketball game at Little Caesars Arena, and Michigan State plays Oakland in the second game that day in a one-time event.
But Wilson has bigger dreams about this as a tipoff, not a one-off.
"Our goal is to bring back these school, one or all of them, on a regular, regular basis and to have major college basketball here on a regular basis every single year," Wilson said.
