100% agree. You could cover one field and make it turf, leave the other as grass.

Vanderbilt did this when I was in grad school there, put a track around it, and let students use the fields and track when the football team wasn't practicing. Facility was used often.

Saw where Montana is getting an inflatable roof much like the Carolina Panthers use. Seems like that would be the more cost effective route if we would only use on days with inclement weather. They can practice at Paladin Stadium on the turf if it’s just rainy right? Doesn’t really get that cold to practice. We certainly want to be exposed to the elements if we every want to win an away game in the playoffs.

Respect for The G Spot…but…it’s gonna be lighted, correct? And it’s where the Football Paladins will be storing up their Football abilities, right?

Obviously, “Electric Warehouse” is the correct moniker for our future facility.

As one of the EW bartenders became FUBeAR’s special friend, she used to provide FUBeAR with a nice sized plastic pitcher on “Drink & Drown” Thursdays while all of you plebeians were clamoring with the throng at the bar to get your 8 oz plastic cups refilled.

It’s summer. Been practicing in August for 100 years, it’ll be ok.

Yes, and the heat so far this summer is nothing compared to years in the past.

Exactly, it’s all part of global cooling.
