I predict we will beat Idaho. If, however, we are not successful in doing so, anyone mentioning a lack of facilities as a reason for our lack of success should be banned. After seeing the picture our AD tweeted of the dairy barn looking quonset hut that is Idaho's stadium, I'm convinced if Idaho can win anything in that "dome", facilities aren't necessary to win. WOW, just WOW.

I love the logic of if we lose one game and their facilities aren't very good then that means facilities don't matter. Anyone can beat anyone else of any given day. I wonder if Miss St, Missouri, and Oklahoma St quit upgrading facilities after losing to Troy?

Troy can win with poor facilities - we have before! But I think the point is that we are now at a point in our program history that poor facilities for an extended period of time is just not acceptable. We stepped up to big boy play and now we have to act like it. We should constantly improve all sports facilities which it appears we have with basketball (and that includes volleyball), baseball, track and field, etc. But we have to get this end zone thing done for our football program and our entire program for that matter. It's Time just like "It's T Time"

It appears my attempt at humor fell flat. I agree, our facilities are not good, we need new ones. New facilities will definitely HELP attract good players. We can't get started soon enough. However when I saw the photo JH tweeted I was amazed. If you haven't seen it, look up the tweet. It seriously looks like a cattle barn in the middle if a field. I was using the poor facilities example to laugh at the appearance of that stadium. When facial expressions, body language and tone of voice are included, some things are funny. The humor gets lost, I suppose, in the written word. I hate that my post came off as my being against facilility upgrades because that is far from how I feel.

The home side of our stadium is a dump. Need to incorporate the stadium with any upgrades.
