Four non football observations

[secondasky]

1. During game day, they talked about a specific football only weight room and someone stepped up with $1 million to help with that. They couldn't believe other athletes could use it previously. (for all you previous largest weight room in the country chest pounders)
2. Washington players were on the field warming up at 7am their time.
3. The field doesn't look good on tv. Big sun glare. Field needs changed maybe similar to Colts new field.
4. Really need to put a press box and suites end to end and quickly.

They need to do something about the tv slots. I felt that way about Rutgers at USC last night starting at 11PM. Thats playing a game until 2 or 2:30 AM. That’s just dumb. Same for a west coast team with a noon eastern kick. It might be small, but they should accommodate at least a little bit better in either situation.

I’m not looking forward to what season ticket price changes. lol. Almost certainly the free Michigan tix o got as a season ticket holder bonus appear to be headed for the dustbin of history.

I don’t care to pay more. Our tickets are ridiculously cheap. Agree on the Pressbox. Need suites all the way across the West side.

The weight room and football facilities are still behind. They need a whole new setup.

Surfboard Fred had the gall to defend a shared weight room when asked about it a few years ago. Then when a real coaching staff is hired one of the first changes they demand is a football only weight room. Amateurs run the athletics department.

Don’t put lipstick on a pig.

Mom’n ‘em can be comfortable as hell at home watching TV.

Our stadium opened in 1960. It’s uncomfortable.

Hell, stick a casino on it.

Do something new and unique - like a leader.

On your starting times, I posted something about this when the merger with the Pac 10 Teams were completed. Washington had a bye week leading into the game, but two weeks ago, They played at Iowa. Both games had noon Eastern Time kicks. So for two consecutive games, Washington had to travel to the Midwest for a 2 or 3 hour time zone change. That has to get old and disruptive over the course of the season. but that is the price of admission those Schools paid for access to the additional money.

Take this to the extreme. With a nine game Conference Schedule, You have 4 or 5 Road Games. At best in a nine game Schedule You could end up with 3 of your 9 games played in the Pacific Time zone. At worst, You could end up with 5 Road trips across 2 or more time zones. Certainly not an ideal situation.

The weight room plans were year before this staff was hired.

On cue, the resident curmudgeon emerges from his hole to bash IU.
Even 8 - 0 does not keep you from spewing your vitriol.
I think you should show IU and that amateur athletic department and take you fandom elsewhere.

Wasn’t the weight divided last off season into having a football only.
