I know a 100 yard field and a physical therapy clinic are part of the plan, but not sure what else may be implemented there.appdaze wrote: ↑Fri Jul 18, 2025 8:28 pmWith the softball field moving, this looks to be a massive facility. Does anyone have access to blueprints as to what all will go in this?

I’d say all of the P4 schools have an indoor facility. I wouldn’t think all of them have high enough ceilings to punt in, but probably a decent amount. I would think most, if not all, also have full size fields.Bigdaddyg1 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 24, 2025 7:03 amHow many schools have full size indoor facilities? Do they make the ceilings high enough to allow for punting?
In the Sun Belt the following schools have indoor practive facilities...App, Ark State, Marshall, ULL, Coastal, South Alabama & Southern Miss all have indoor facilities (i'm unsure it a ball can be punted in them but they all appear to greater than 50 yards in length).Bigdaddyg1 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 24, 2025 7:03 amHow many schools have full size indoor facilities?

I'm almost 100% positive that our new indoor facility is going to be 120 yds and high enough to hold full practices. In other news I rode by the new Coastal indoor facility and it looked full length and high enough for punts as well.
Agreed. This is much less of a cost, in the interim, than the proposed East tower. The set up with temporary stands is tight for players coming in and out onto the field. Although happens on 6 or 7 times a year, it is a let down the field entry at beginning of the game...and the music choice is not the best. Little things.... however it does set the stage for fans etc at beginning of game.
I was not a fan of doing this in the beginning as my contract for my seats allowed for field access. I for one used it sparingly so losing it doesn’t bother me outside of the language of the contract. That being said, the folks that got in early got a deal versus what it costs now to get in so I doubt anyone cares what the OG seat holders think. I do wonder if the Hatley Family would have any issues since they paid for the rights to that space under the seats.BambooRdApp wrote: ↑Fri Jul 25, 2025 8:08 amAgreed.

For me a game is all about the entire experience and even those seemingly small things matter. The intro music, the announcer, the band playing, players running on the field, etc. If our game folks don’t consider these things that add to the experience people notice. Different people look for different things. Some may not care anymore about “welcome to the rock” or even playing Back in Black because times change but certain traditions should stay.BambooRdApp wrote: ↑Fri Jul 25, 2025 8:08 amAgreed.

With you 100% . If they are so determined to have the Alabama song played. Do it way earlier. Give me some hard rock like you said. Va. Tech helps set the standard.

Maybe the covered rooftop that was promised can be negotiated.

Yeah that was a sore spot for a lot of folks. I wonder if it got scrapped when the stands started to collapse and they had to add the extra support beams underneath the stands.BambooRdApp wrote: ↑Fri Jul 25, 2025 9:08 amMaybe the covered rooftop that was promised can be negotiated.

Not 100% sure...but heard it had to be scrapped due construction reasons.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 25, 2025 9:15 amYeah that was a sore spot for a lot of folks.

The stands were supposed to be supported by the building. But when they set them, they started pulling away from the building. Next time you are up there, take a look at the support beams on top of the columns. None of that was supposed to be there.BambooRdApp wrote: ↑Fri Jul 25, 2025 9:22 amNot 100% sure...but heard it had to be scrapped due construction reasons.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 25, 2025 9:15 amYeah that was a sore spot for a lot of folks.
