Has Crum gotten a refresh at all since it's been built?

[PonyFan32]

Looks pretty nice. Might even have to try to check it out whenever I'm on campus for our game with them.

Don't think it will matter too much in terms of perception of their program until they rehab or scrap that Soviet bunker they play their games in.

Crum is fine. I think it is still one of the top 25 basketball facilities in the country.

good for them; good for the AAC; we all need to ramp things up

UH will have good facilities all around now for the most part. Too bad campus is in a trashy area.

[DanFreibergerForHeisman]

Good for The American. I trust if Crum even "needs" anything we will get it.

And a firing range for those on the other side of the 7-11 counter.

It seems to me UH and SMU are really the only schools not in the P5 making a real push for inclusion. Obviously I feel we will be able to u=outspend them at the end of the day since we are a private school, but they are certainly making a push.

UCF, Cincy, and UConn are making a push as well.
