That's ridiculous. Indoor facilities didn't exist. Now Abilene Wyile has an indoor facility. Plano won 7 state titles and they felt the need to build one. Doak, Eric, and James won without Ford Stadium... Why did SMU build it?
Agreed. They got along well without cell phones, too. We need to stay current with the latest technology in order to try to have that extra edge every year.
