Your man CJL won from trailers. Why would we need an IPF? If CJS is as good as hoped he should be able to win no matter the facilities. That said, an IPF really is needed because of the weather.

No, we need the “football center/IPF” for recruiting. The days of Jimbo are from prehistoric times compared to expectations of high school players today.

I don’t think an IPF is a “need” I do think if a decade after you claim it’s one you can’t break ground that sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does suck but there is no obvious solution. I can point out that this Board failed to reach a 10k goal which is indicative of the fan base in general. In fact, this board probably represents the "better than average" fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the heck is a bad fan? Don't know if you are talking about people like me that are not the eternal optimist but, to my thinking, you are either a fan or you aren't.

I really don't consider myself a better fan than you or others. We're retired and have the opportunity to go to more events than some people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
