I'm agreeing with you. They had all these grand designs and then only built a locker room, that doesn't even look that great if you ask me. I'm hoping they didn't want to invest too much into it because the ultimate plan is to build an entirely new stadium.

I'm wondering if, with softball moving, that doesn't open up more space over there where you can start the build in that corner and then once a season is over you can finish out the outfield, that would probably cut into the existing field a bit.

The other thing I'm wondering is, at some point Hearnes is going. Softball is moving up by it. I wonder if, in time, the plan is to move baseball up there next to softball, You can then build a replacement for Hearnes over where baseball was. That would keep the diamond sports together and the arena sports (basketball, volleyball, wrestling, etc.) would be kind of closer in proximity to Mizzou Arena.

Well job number 3 for the new AD is get that money rolling in for a new stadium. And do not laugh when I say indoor.

If you have to drive 7 hours to Millington,TN to play "home" games that snow canceled at your facility then we are too far north. Need to invest in a dome stadium.

By the way NOTHING but the circus and monster truck rallies are good in a dome stadium
