Not another facilities thread

[williston_gator]

Looks like even Kentucky is leap frogging UF.
98k sqft, dining, nutrition, health care, barber shop, weight room, smoothie shop, flat screens, cool lighting, and a giant TV.

@CoachSamz: Here's a sneak peek at the new $45 million facility UK is revealing to their players today http://footballscoop.com/news/heres...entucky-revealing-new-facility-players-today/

Side note, they updated their uniforms again too apparently.

We're not getting in an arms race. We're Florida damnit. Kids will come here no matter what!

Our guys just got new sleeping bags and waterproof tents. We're fine.

We didn't want him anyway.

Foley is out. Going for new blood with the AD, and not some one already in the circle. Hopefully they strive for the best, when it comes to paying coaches/assistants and facility upgrades.

CFB is well on its way to being ruined by money.

Well we all knew it was going to happen. Look how much money the NCAA and Colleges are making.

How is it being ruined? It's more popular than ever.

Because, it's changed and it's not what it used to be. Where's the tradition? Duh.

It becomes less and less about what it was always supposed to be about....

Gone are the days of the true student-athlete....it's a business now.

It's always been a business.

It's always been a business.

Are we still talking about college football or T's moms sex life?

 

[GatorStud]

Kissing teenagers a$$es is a dubious business to be in...

 

[MidwestChomp]

Still won't matter for Kentucky. And damn it, when is UF going to get a barber shop for the football players.

 

[T REX]

Here's my slant...if our brand is damaged as some on here claim. Why wouldn't you try to make up for it in other places IE facilities, etc etc.

 

[NavetG8r]

Anybody remember RockyIV? Train in tougher conditions = win. Stop pampering them, this is football, not tennis!

 

[ATXGator]

I think the facility upgrade planning is already being done. Foley has talked about a Master Plan for facilities and getting football its own space. They just need to get through the plans and build it.

We do have a brand new academic center which is a start. Getting locker room upgrades, player lounge, etc... will be key.

I agree with you. But, kids are pampered these days and look for this kind of crap.

Plus, how many kids can do this?
