mdn82 Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 How would you know? I've been to plenty of games but I don't live in state. That's my opinion sorry you don't like it.Sent from my SM-J700T using TapatalkSorry you have said in game threads you don't go. I wouldn't expect you to care what it looks like.

Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Cameron is old though and pitino has a nice class coming in next year with a to 60 guy from New York. Minnesota also has no practice facility. I'm just saying you can still win without modern buildings.Sent from my SM-J700T using TapatalkMost definitely!! I dont disagree with that one bit. I just think it only helps when you do. The elite recruits tend to look at those things more than most. You can still have great recruiting classes every so often without. That is why closing your local talent down is so important. Richard has been doing that. Minnesota is gonna be really good in the near future. The Barn is a great place to play.Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app mdn82 1 Quote

Especially for those that actually have gone to games in the past and present and don't watch only basketball on tv. Not a bad thing, but obviously those people haven't seen the renovations and only see Crean. I can't blame those people for feeling the way they do misguided as it is. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app I was a student at Indiana so I would qualify from you're statement above. I live out of state and haven't gone to any games since RMK. The sorry state of our teams leads me to not miss it up close, as I've seen this s__tshow plenty on TV. As far as facilities upgrades, hasn't Purdue added a basketball facility and upgrades to Mackey? He'll, Clemson did at a football school, so what has Glass done that no other AD isn't doing with facilities? While these are great, I can point to endless other schools who have done just as much. He gambled and lost on Creans contract, and this is the most important fact when it comes to Indiana athletics. Quote

If he doesn't sign Crean to that unholy 2 year extension we may have had to wait another year as it would have happened the year after we were number 1 most of the year. You should honestly go back if has been that long since you have been there. They have done nice things. Not athletics related but all dorms will have AC in two years which is crazy. We didn't have that luxury. Athletics wise we should be able to compare with the top dogs recruiting wise when we have a new coach. It isn't on a U.K. Level, but they just built theirs a couple years ago. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Yogi's Picnic Basket 1 Quote

My family is here now, and I just haven't prioritized it.

If you get the chance do it. AH looks a lot better. Cook Hall is awesome too I love taking the tour around campus. I got lucky and went to the UNC game so my experiences at the new AH have been fabulous lol. The AC is gonna be a big thing too. May seem minor but if you read kids twitters from our players and others that dont have it it is very much a big deal.Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app mdn82 1 Quote

coonhounds Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Cook Hall, Memorial Stadium, and AH are his major items he has done in his time. When it was announced AH was going to be renovated it wasn't all cosmetic. There was structural repairs to keep the building going which was a popular decision.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appI do want to clarify that i have zero beef with glass and i love cook hall and the renovations to assembly hall it is awesome. Hate they have to say donor name in front of the real name but it is common anymore. I just hope he does right at the end of this season as far as basketball is concerned. I have wanted crean gone along time but don't blame glass a bit for not doing it yet. He has had reason to give chances up until now. Imo it ia now time to act and i believe he willSent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app mdn82 1 Quote

I knew they were renovating Read to make it air conditioned, and then converting some buildings back into dorms, but I didn't know they were bringing AC to the other ones without it too.
