Not sure what they'd do without major tear down and rebuild. Seating bowl is awesome as it is.

I remember when that field was new. It is crazy how short a shelf life facilities have at all levels of sports.

The 70-90 fans that show up would really appreciate a new facility

Same could be said for the Baseball program as well. For some reason, Baseball is an afterthought compared to football and basketball.

Reality is BU doesn't have the ability, wherewithal or real desire to truly compete. It's a small school with a mindset and vision of education with athletics as additional aspect of the university. Athletics is an "afterthought" to an extent. The green and gold glasses folks know it, but keep pounding BU's chest. The NIL and the "new frontier" has pretty much killed my interest in college sports. I think it will make a much easier path for Baylor to diminish sports long term.

So many excuses, other teams in the Big 12 compete with worse/same facilities than ours. We need better team leadership and development. Pitching is the only thing that is really better.

what?! compared to Baylor from the 90's and early 2000's, Baylor is showing it wants to compete at the highest levels. Look at McLane, Foster and all the new football facilities. That doesnt show an apathetic University to college sports.

There are active plans out there. I think they're in fundraising. They are going to get rid of those metal bleachers extended out that way and then make a party cove out that way with us. We can grill out and stuff. Both sides will stand out eventually with new indoor facilities better seating and stuff.
