Stand alone Football Facility

[Swamp Donkey]

Facilities just dont become obsolete from in one year. 5 years ago it was not a problem and now it sounds like we have crap. .

We have crap. Basically stuck in the 80s. Players couldnt shower or use restrooms per recent graduates.

The facilities became "a problem" by 2008 or so once Bammer went supernova, but we were behind Kentucky and USC by 1998 at least IME.

You Pumps just havent noticed and believed that whatever Fooley did was good enough.

Move the track program to SW rec....easy, simple, most economical....

I hope to hell it looks better than the one drawing offered, It looks straight from 1960

Mac has been on Foley about this since he arrived in Gainesville and i Just heard that Foley is about to "open up the Wallet" to build one. The plan's are being drawn up and we should hear more about it before spring practice. The Project is going to cost somewhere between $45 and $55 million! #ChompChomp

What does Fooley have to do with it? Is that clown still around?

Must be the same draftsman that did North-South Hall.

And yet.... unfortunately, he is.

Pair this with some really good recruiters and it's awesome, with a staff of bleh it's also bleh.

I know.

It's a step in the right direction. But like I said, it's a step and one in many that need to be addressed.

Holy cow he's right!

Vince Lombardi would have thought it was the shiznet.

 

[williston_gator]

Just curious, how long do y'all think it takes to build a $60mil facility?

It could be done in far less than 2.5 years. Must have cheaped out on the crew.

That looks like exactly the kind of buildling I'd expect Fooley to approve... if they insisted on something other than doublewides.

Damn! Track & Field wastes a lot of real estate.

They asked to build it in the track & field area, but those guys just gave them the run-around.

 

[rogdochar]

Dang! Foley contracted with Ikea?

I agree but that article says they wont even choose the engineer until February and won't start construction until a year from now. Seems like they don't have it all worked out. Heck, it took Butler like 10 years to even start the big new plaza they just built in GNV.
