First phase is a $102 Million funded by $72M capital campaign and $30M private donation through the Kansas City Sport Trust.

This is an investment across the board for all facilities: FB, Baseball, Softball, Tennis, Golf and training facilities.

Stepping up to the SEC challenge.

Y'all aren't stepping up, you're playing catch up. And you never will.

Of the all the fans to talk shite, it's the Kantucky fans? Rupp is old, your football stadium is fairly nice, but smaller than ours as is, and your baseball stadium is nothing to brag on...

Agreed, I just hope 10 years from now we'll look back and have ridiculously different athletic facilities. I know we're way behind, but at least it's a start.

I'm not talking shite. I'm telling the truth. Kentucky will never catch up either on the football or baseball side of things. Neither will most SEC schools.

And we have the best basketball facilities in the nation (besides Rupp), so try again there.

Only $200 million? I expect we will blow more than twice that just on our stadium upgrade.

This is the rendering on the Mizzou press release, this first phase will focus on the upper bowl on the east side of the stadium.

You're right. It makes sense that the only school in the conference with any real basketball history would not have the nicest basketball practice/player facilities.

It figures, TAMU is the king of squandering recruiting talent, makes sense you can squander money well too.

"We have the best shite! (well except for the place where we actually play our games)"

WTF is this Kentucky blue tick logic?

I was expecting something like "and we will still beat you in that new stadium" so thanks for keeping it fresh.

Whatever. We just hung a new banner. When was the last time y'all did?

You're Mizzou. Over half your state population could give two shits about your university or their athletics.
