I'm talking about when it finally expanded. Shields-Watkins was built by students. It took a ton of work and almost wasn't finished. Later it began to grow.



Yeah, it's definitely cool to see how hard UT's students worked to make it happen. I'm just always amused that our stadium was SO much bigger than yours then. Now, Neyland is like 3.5 times as big as Dudley. Damned change over time!

Just added a lot more to that post you might be interested in perusing. It truly is amazing how things changed but Vandy always whips our arse in baseball so you have that. Dudley is stuck with a city that grew up around it. (UT campus is too but fortunately it doesn't effect that stadium so much). However, back in the day Vandy was badass and had a stadium to match.
