Indoor Facility

Postby couch 'em » Mon Aug 18, 2008 5:17 pm

The June Jones video interview over on the stampede private board has JJ mentioning the need for an indoor facility again. Does anyone know of anything in the works? What is this, the 3rd or 4th time he has mentioned it? Where could it even be put?

In front of the Bush Library.

They could put it where the soccer field/track is now.

I prefer George W to be bald. No president washes his hair enough to maintain sanitation.

I believe they have plans to upgrade Wescott already.

I think the best option is in the parkinglot/housing south of Dedman on the east side of Ford. I think SMU owns all of that.

Or on the Baird's location (outside UP) if it would fit. That would also give us more free signage on 75.

Let's just hope we get one done. JJ wants it, he gets it. Otherwise he bolts. Ask Hawaii.

He did say "hopefully we can get that worked up in a couple of years"...

You can see below that I've inserted the TCU 80-yard facility (the image on mapquest wasn't updated, but you get the idea) at Bairds and also the UT facility over on Potomac just east of Ford.

Interesting thought Couch'em. That could work.

Someone needs to tell the man that if he takes his sweats off, Texas will be a LOT cooler.

Man...those TCU and UT guys aren't going to come all the way over to SMU to practice. Forget it.
