This is a weak excuse. Pay a lot of money and hire some golf course dudes to figure it out.

That UT game was the 10th game of the season, not at DWRRS obviously but still had seen some wear. Most fields looks like shite by then.

How can you say it get less light than Death Valley, Kyle or Bama? They’re stands are way taller, don’t care if it’s on a hill, they should be able to make it work. It worked fine until Petrino, don’t recall anyone specifically saying our grass was a huge problem.

This was 100% a Petrino gimmick. Find me something published that says it’s an issue and I’ll shut my mouth.

We had turf for like 20+ years before Petrino came along. He wasn’t the first one with that idea for us.

What part where I stated “grass will not hold up an entire season” confused you? You just agreed with my post.

You are really mad about grass, just wanted to point that out.
