Grass doesn’t grow well at Faurot. George Toma, the longtime groundskeeper for the Chiefs, said the problem with Faurot was that there was way too much sand so the roots had nothing to hold onto.

Well that makes sense.

But with the SEC media check you’re about to cash why not dig up the sand and replace it with the best soil and turf available for your area?

People do it for residential new builds all the time.

If they can play on grass in Lexington and Iowa City y’all could have natural grass if they wanted to.
