I keep hearing we have the best Facilities in the country


Jun 8, 2019, 11:36 AM

But our indoor practice facility is really just a pre engineered aircraft hanger that was re purposed and a few niceties were added.

IDK, I have seen some pretty impressive indoor practice fields going up lately, I think it probably time we rethink ours and come up with some thing truly breathtaking, our program deserves it.


Here is lowly Northwestern's new facility btw....

this one is breath taking. Evanston does look nice, but the winds whipping across the Lake Michigan can make it rather unpleasant at times.

No shyatt 'bout that, I called Chitown home in the recents

for the 3+ longest winters of my lifesesses.

It's not for the weak and I still wonder which moran landed on the glistening shores of Lake Michigan, then decided after the first winter to build a town, stay for a while, maybe longer.

One windy night in January in Chicago and a year in Champagne were enough for me

Though Uncle Sam did choose a nice little spot in Southern Illinois for me for 3 years. Nowhere near as cold as up North there. But a beautiful site next to the lake there for sure.

If I were a college football player I'd be more concerned with the other amenities, and in that case our new football operations center takes the cake.

Besides, the indoor facility has a roof, which is all that is needed. Guys aren't spending time in there outside of practice for the most part.

if we eliminated Basketball and Baseball all together, we could afford something even nicer.

Our indoor practice facility may not win any architectural awards but the team that uses the facility has a huge trophy case filled with the most prestigious football awards.

Plus they don’t have all those trashy banners from the past hanging up.

If Clemson keeps living in the past with “2 of the last 3 National Championships” they will get complacent and have no future.

You got it Starman. They needed some sturdier beams and to their credit made them into a beautiful building.
