RE: Indoor Practice Facility
In my day, Turf room was used mainly for winter workouts, 40 timing, and some goal line stuff in pads. No way was I gonna mess up and run into a cinder block wall.
3rd locker from the end on the right was my home for 4 years.
That weight room was all we had in those days. A couple of Nautilus machines, three free weight stations and a Universal machine.

nope its fact
How do YOU know? You're in Florida. Was some article written about it? Or are you taking someone like B's word for it? Someone, I might add, that makes a habit of fishing these waters with crap just like this.
I mean, B, if there was ever a more instructive instance of the boy who cried wolf, this is it. I don't believe you because it is YOU who is claiming this. I need some corroboration. .... Oh, from someone who lives in the Memphis area - no offence F.

Agree 100% ...
Wasn't an option.
Understand about the money (directed donations, etc.); but the discussion and initial fund raising for the IPF began well before any talk about an new BB facility ... We HAVE to have a new IPF to continue our recruiting gains; not just talk about a new one ..
I seem to recall a lot of people donating to the IPF back in 2011. Funny that all these years later and they still haven't started it yet.

They'll look better after a week on the bike and walking on the beach during our annual FL trip.

This guy knows his stuff. That's exactly how I remember it when Joe Doss was working out in it.

I talked to coach a few days ago at an event and he said ground breaking was set for 4/27 and he wasn't above renting a backhoe and starting it himself. Didn't seem mad though.

Hope so. I gave a small donation through the M-Club last year so it would be nice to see some footings go in and steel go up immediately after the celebrity hardhats do the ceremonial scoops of dirt.
