And Then There was Turf

But have they gotten the permits?
Impressive. I like how all the athletic facilities are clustered together.
Looks like the game plan is to finish the seats to the end of the dug outs and then expand that seating to the bull pens later. All of us who got bricked up should be able to get seats.
And not to ruin the excitement, but even with this new stadium, we will be way behind the best facilities in the conference.
Coastal’s is extremely nice. I was in Lafayatte a few weeks ago, and I toured their stadium after having seen it years ago when I coached a football game there. It’s top-level SEC quality:

The Ragin Cajuns are definitely all in on Baseball. Not that their football stadium and basketball area are sub par (for sun belt) but they definitely went all out for baseball and fill that stadium up routinely.
Field equipment like a gator or portable batting cage?
When I first looked at it, I thought it was elevated. Seems to be ground level. I assume it will be fenced in during games.
It’s our secret weapon. Hit a line drive in there and it will rattle around
The bull pens are down each line both RF and LF. The left center bump out is for something else
Ruin the excitement?
Having our own ballpark is going to be plenty more than enough juice for students, area residents & visitors. Hopefully this just continues the momentum Brad Smith is creating every day, with athletics yes but so much more importantly academics & infrastructure……
You right. That is for vehicles to enter the field. EMS, construction. Machinery. Batting turtle, etc.
Apologies
Well, we’ll HAVE facilities now though, so…
Id like to see them improve their facilities as much in the next 10 years as we just did.
@BleedsGreen33 was still in his flock of seagulls phase in 2008 as well.
