Having played baseball back in the day, are metal spikes still allowed?  Would seem awfully helpful in the outfield but not welcome on the turf. I suppose that's why the dirt in the infield doesn't co-exist with turf in the infield.  I don't know, just thinking about moving to artificial surfaces...

Will be a weird dynamic, wont it? Spikes on the outfielders, but turf shoes/rubber cleats on infielders? I'm not a turf connoisseur but have to imagine it's different than football? Not a big fan of a turf infield but if it's a smart business move, then have to trust it. Also, the Bulls script looks awesome.

We will be fundraising for all of it.

They started with the infield for Baseball from the gift given last year. Coach Mohl does want the entire field to be turf as soon as we have the $$$ for it.

As the slides indicate from the master plan, Baseball and Softball will eventually have a clubhouse our between their respective stadiums in the future.

Can't wait for the development for baseball/softball. That performance facility/clubhouse should be great. Guilty pleasure is watching the facility tours for the big baseball programs, Vandy/USC/Clemson - we will be there some day, hopefully soon. Omaha first!

From the Master Plan page on gousfbulls.com - 

Baseball & Softball

 

Hey John - out of all of the upgrades listed in the master plan, how much of the expenses are earmarked already? Or are we fundraising for nearly all of it still? (Also, I do not see anything that says baseball outfield goes to turf in Phases 1, 2, nor 3, I may have missed something though.)

Do we have a running list of hired coaches/vacancies? Saw a rumor of DeMarcus Van Dyke and that would be huge if he came onboard.

The two transfers that I know of that were going to visit this past weekend were Lloyd Summerall (DE) from Florida and Weston Wolff (TE) from Maryland.

I belive Weston Wolff committed. 

Looks like CAG landed his first recruit (transfer) this morning. Go Bulls. 

Went by the IPF today, looks like they have the dedication name on it but all covered up. It looks awesome. 

Tweet fired me up. Now how can I change my name to USF_WARDADDIES?

The OCS timeline has been pretty clear from all of the statements that have been made by MK, WW, etc. Currently we're on track.

Thanks, John. Good to hear and know.

So do we give him the nickname ginger Leavitt or Russian Leavitt?

Have been referring to him as Chubby Sean McVay. 

Completely agree. Especially after learning more about CAG. 

My eye twitched after hearing we are hiring someone named "Orlando". First CAG spent one season there, now we are hiring someone with that name.... *pukes*

Would not hate Mullen at all. Sure, does not have the momentum as Chadwell/Prime and others, but could be real good. Think I'd prefer him to Tom Allen.

This guy.

My sources said this guy was at the Athletics Center and seems to fit the bill:

University of South Flurriduh.

Just now, Rocky Style said:

So we are out of anyone USF on the board except for the @deioniscoming troll account?

I mean, I still hope he's wrong. Buttttt let's just hope Chadwell is still on the table too. 

I have been told by someone in the industry that he is "pretty sure Prime to Colorado" and was told by "someone who would know". Guy would not text me if he did not believe it. Take that with what you will.

Chucky Atkins posted the JP Peterson tweet on facebook with the "shhh" emoji. Then every comment telling him its not happening he'd respond with a laughing gif. More likely it means nothing and he's just having fun

Also saw it mentioned some of the players have confirmed Primetime was on campus within the last week

Do you have a screenshot for those of us without FB? 

EDIT: Will you please provide one*

Have to think the premium parking will be along Sycamore drive and the closer parking lots ... but parking for every OCS is all across their campuses right?  People will be parking in the Fine Arts and Engineering parking lots and walking over.

This. Ideally alums from all colleges come back to campus and utilize the entire campus for game day environments. College of Engineering will throw alumni events/tailgates near their buildings, college of business, former greek life alum, etc. Eventually I think the school can/should/will sell premium tailgating spaces, similar to the Grove at Ole Miss and The Boulevard at SMU once the infrastructure around the stadium develops.

I really hope you didn't believe I was serious with that time.

Sooooo.... when is it?
