I guess maybe schools that far south don't really need one, except I guess when it rains.

it looks like a model home for indoor practice facilities.
but for real, our campus is ugly.

UGA was chartered in 1785, before the US Constitution was even ratified. Our campus was laid out over a hundred years before the invention of cars.
Sprawly as it may be, and buildings being what they are, it's all part of the tradition.
The first state chartered university in North America = UGA.
Yeah, there's some old ugly shite.
Want to tear it all down and turn Athens into Gainseville Florida?
I didn't think so.
By the way, UGA's tiny little indoor practice facility was apparently enough of an official indoor practice facility for the NCAA to cite UGA during Crowell's recruitment when they walked from Richt's office (overlooking it) to where players were set up, missing a running back, and tossed the ball to Crowell saying "we need a running back"... and they got tagged for "imitating game play" which is a no-no in recruiting...so it's a Bush league bullshite practice facility, unless it involves NCAA sanctions, then it's a real awesome full-time practice facility.. funny how that works.

Wing would break that roof. No wonder JFF can't kick.
FTR gatorhata, when is the last time you visited Ole Miss? Every building looks alike with their awful red roofs. Basic brick buildings with a grove thrown in the middle. LSU's venetian roofs, unique buildings, and state of the art facilities trump anything the runts have.

That really doesn't look like the McFerrin Athletic Center.

Florida State just recently got one. That blew my mind, especially with all the success they had during the 80s-90s.

Besides the over rated grove Ole Miss is nothing special unless we are talking about pussy. Athens is a beautiful town but the campus is fugly.

you won't find any Ags disagreeing with you. the majority of our campus expanded during the 70's in the best of soviet military architecture. then, i guess we decided to buy a beige brick company because all of our new buildings are built out of the same most bland beige brick i've ever seen.

This entire conversation is riveting and great fodder for finger pointing(we have one and you don't). However the crux of the argument is being missed entirely. Why does it matter?
For what reason does UGA need a full size indoor facility. What weather is so dangerous in NE Georgia that it warrants having one on campus. UGA already has full size fieldturf fields as well as regular turf fields that serve their needs. A school like UK, I can understand why they would need one as it may snow towards the back end of football season and the team needs to be indoors. An indoor facility would get used maybe 3-5 times a year due to rain at UGA. Just not enough bang for the buck to have it. The only purpose it would serve is for UGA to say to a recruit, "Look we have one just like Bama." With a consecutive string of top 5-10 recruiting classes in Athens, it doesn't seem to be hindering the coaches at all.
