If you are wondering why I gave you a "Dislike" it's because I'm so tired of hearing "football only" and trashing our other sports. I'm proud of our baseball team, our basketball team, etc. and they deserve first rate facilities as well.
I'm proud of them too, and a huge Basketball fan. Basketball is an income generating sport and the only one besides football that carries all the others. This is the best looking team we've had since the "oh fours". This could be a special year and we'll get a look at them against great competition next week.

It was cool to win our first CWS, but if I recall the O-Dome remodel had a budget of 50-60 million so we are spending the same on baseball facility for a couple thousand fans a game and no real television revenue.

The more "SS" goes out of his way to discredit the rumors, the more I tend to believe they're more than rumors.

What? Everyone is like if it isn't Kelly, Stricklin would be out there doing damage control but then when he dispels the rumors you guys are like "the more he discredits the more I believe them!"

1. Aren't they tearing down the existing baseball facility to make room for the football facility? So remodeling the existing isn't an option?
2. Again, our athletes deserve the best facilities regardless of whether they are in a revenue sport.
3. I don't think funding is an issue. We can do both.

But they and several other "minor" sports are part of why the SEC network has money for us and others.

According to the broadcast.....Frost, Frost, and more Frost and that was after talking to Stricklin before the game. Smokescreen?

Also, Townsend got screwed for an individual award for punter....because the team net punting stats were not good.....so freaking stupid
