Our field seems to be a hot topic that is in multiple posters' minds so I wanted to show why it is in the shape it is in.

Yes it's a wall of text. I summarized it later. Yes, it's about Tennessee, but considering multiple SEC teams play on the field it's fine being on the rant.

That is a valid point.

I will take the time to go back and read it.

Not interested in the subject, don't comment on the fricking subject. It's simple enough for even a bandwagon gump like yourself to understand.


And don't kid yourself, you DO care deeply about my opinion of Alabama. You hang on my every word, even the prepositions.

Honestly, this was the first thing that came to mind when I was reading that article.

Either the current groundskeeper is a blithering moron who is completely full of himself and is excellent at arse kissing or he is purposely being directed to funnel money to somebody through sod purchases.

I just Youtubed the North Texas game and it really didn't look that bad to me, but I'm far from an expert. I always think Alabama's looks like shite.

Didn't read but I'm going to assume your grass has caught whatever Dobbs has.

Perhaps if you took the "crap" product off the field and looked at it again...it would look better.

Our soccer field has beautiful grass. Many thinks to your resident on campus expert that you refuse to consult.

Mr. Updyke has some expertise in horticulture. Maybe you guys should let him take a shot at your problem.

Whole field?

I think it's common to re-sod the end zones and the areas that are constantly painted, but I don't know about the whole field.
