Mav that's because most of your recruits that have seen it have only toured 1-AA programs....zing.Uh, wrong sporto....Nice try but you should read our Ticker on ucfsports.com a bit closer than you do now.What is your average star rating on Rivals again?BTW, for the record, I have been extremely nice during all this trashing. So back off.You want to play with the big boys, show up at the other board like you used to.And don't lump me in with STK. I go to our board and this one and that is it.

Mav that's because most of your recruits that have seen it have only toured 1-AA programs....zing.It doesn't matter what it ends up as.Yours houses much more than football. That is NOT a slam at all. Simply a reality.Ours is a football only building and designed as such. It has EVERYTHING yours does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the artist rendition of the completed update to USF's facilities, awesome, can't wait. Hopefully, there will be more than expected funds to carry out the expansion and add some wish list items for each sport. I also like the view of the new Sun Dome Entrance it gives it a more appeasing and inviting look than the current bland entrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money is never an issue over there and powerful connections for projects and UTA friendly legislation are always just a phone call away. We all think that the University of Florida or FSU are the end all be all of college athletics....but they pale in comparison to schools like UTA, Michigan and other big, tradition filled land grant institutions.

We all think that the University of Florida or FSU are the end all be all of college athletics....but they pale in comparison to schools like UTA, Michigan and other big, tradition filled land grant institutions.Have you been to Michigan? Their facilities are not that great at all. Many of them are very outdated and the school is in teh midst of devising a campus wide athletics reconstruction (including Michigan Statdium rennovations)If it weren't for an off campus arena FSU might have the best facilities in the country, and Florida isn't too close behind. Both schools have primier Basketball practice facilities that put some NBA teams to shame. Their baseball stadiums (especially FSU's are unbelievable). FSU's scocer facility is unbelievable, and UF's track is pretty killer (I think they play soccer there too.Texas probably has the best overall facilities in the country, followed by Ohio State, then Florida State and Florida trailing right behind. However, I'd model my facilites after any of those 4, they do it right. If only we had the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
