SMU innovative thinking strikes again

Stacking it on top of the old floor was a hell of a lot cheaper than ripping up the old one, I expect. Financial move by an athletic department that doesn't have a budget the size of those at Texas, Florida, etc. Budgets are reality, so this actually made sense.

It would have made even more sense to measure the existing floor before ordering a new one to cover it.

We'll even pull out ancient history in order to whine about our alma maters. Nice.

Looking forward to the new Moody.

It is relevant because it wiped out half of the bleacher section which is where the rowdy supporters sit or at least did when I was in school. Now it looks like there are just a handful of people able to sit there.

Ponyboy, sometimes even SMU makes a mistake and hopefully it can be recognized and improved upon rather than ignoring it and doing the same thing over and over.

Exactly - there really was no excuse for that mistake.

Get about 20 students in there one day to rip up the old floor and buy them some pizza.
