We shall agree to disagree, but I understand your thought. I feel like getting beat 56-3 in HOD is not going to awaken the sleeping giant. Well, it might wake up but will go right back to sleep saying "same ole North Texas". its nice to even think we have the possibility of considering this, much better problem than another 1-11 season.

IF we got a bowl, getting smashed by UT or TCU would be a terrible situation - we aren't there yet, not even close. Don't kid yourselves. best scenario is we get a manageable opponent in HOD, but manaheable opponent is far more important than which bowl - if we get a bowl.

I'm on a baseball visit with my son at FIU this weekend. We walked up yesterday and came upon Mean Green women soccer playing FIU, got to see them winning conference. It was a nice surprise. Wish Mean Green had baseball!

My son went on a visit to TCU recently with the baseball coaches, part of what they showed us was the TCU IPF. For baseball, it allows them to work when its too wet, too cold, etc (individually or as team) . Some of their alumni that play in the pros also use it during the winter for their offseason (long toss, running, etc). On his visit to Air Force, very similar. IPF allows all teams to practice when conditions outside won't allow (football, soccer, baseball, etc). Many schools connected them to weight rooms and that allows them to expand training that way by doing weights along with sprints, tire flips, sled push, etc, etc.

I wish it was, but reading through the document it definitely does not include construction. In fact, it doesn't include a detailed design. the completion June 2017 is specifically for the "Program" and the master plan revision. Program is fund raising, diagrams, etc. nothing more.

This isn't to build the IPF, this is for someone to develop the program to fund, design and plan for the IPF and updated athletics master plan.
