I got kicked off of TA back when they first started building McFerrin for saying (after looking at the plans) that we were building some half-arse white-trash bullshite that would be a major eyesore and that we'd all regret it. At the time everyone was a "no these are cutting edge, will look great, stack up nicely against our competition, etc"... Seems like the consensus opinion has changed just like I predicted. They're tents. Other schools have brick-facaded BUILDINGS, we erected circus tents. It's shameful.


Of course you did. There's not one combined engineering degree amongst their staff.

It makes me mad that we cut corners on something so prominently placed. BAYLOR has a brick indoor practice facility. Louisville has a brick facility. Auburn's is mostly just corrugated, but AT LEAST THAT LOOKS PERMANENT. Ours is probably the most prominently placed of any university but looks the second cheapest behind the bubble, although the bubble is at least less conspicuous.
