next, a new hitting backdrop


An engineer who does work for LSU showed me the new batter's eye. It looks great. Picture the Astro's batters eye but with the block L S U letters in the ivy. Hopefully it is up by first pitch next year.

I went into the new LSU bullpen on Monday night. It's really not bad at all. It does not look like it did in those early pics. It's been finished out fine. Players are good with it, although Guidry said it was a little cold (probably from the metal bleachers). There are plenty fans inside for w

It is more of an addition than a renovation. New visitor bullpen, new home bullpen, and new on-field seating areas. Nets now extend almost to foul polls. Nothing old has been renovated.

JJ gave a lot of heart-felt information at Coaches Committee. He is very honest and gives long answers to all questions.

He had six new players there - Schmidt, Costello, Priester, Thompson, Rizy, and Ware. He talked about the recruiting path of each.

He talked to Schmidt daily and had

How about NO FRICKING ADS on the outfield wall.


That's fine if you want to donate the money being lost by not having ads.

JJ mentioned at Coaches Committee that he likes the clean look too, but that money has n

I saw Cane s and Chik fil A bags coming in today.
Advocate article says team will practice today and fly out this afternoon. I assume there is equipment at airport that can clear snow. Temps will move above freezing today. No clue about conditions in Columbia.
I'll be there. I have a son that lives in Frisco. Bought tickets for DBU and Frisco Classic.

Driving up from BR on Wednesday (2/26). DBU is all general admission tickets in the Rangers stadium (closed cover).

Have reserves tickets in Frisco Stadium (open cover) and club access for one day w

The area around The Star (Dallas Cowboys HQ) is pretty cool and has good restaurants. Legacy Hall is a giant food court at Legacy West. Scheels sporting goods at The Colony is worth a trip if you’ve never been.

Heading up from Red Stick for DBU and the three at Frisco. Club access is also available (for a fee). It was mighty cold for K State in Round Rock a few years back.

Go with the lower row. I'm on Row 14 of Section 422. Pregame, the lines can get pretty slow going up. It's worth it to be able to get in and out a little quicker. On top of that, I sit on the aisle and can usually pee and get back without missing a play on longer time-outs (like end of quarters).

I made the trip to Austin for the three game series a few years ago. Tickets were tight, and it was cold as ice on Sunday. Tigers got swept. UT fans were nice and stadium was ok. I'm not a fan of artificial turf fields. We stayed at Doubletree right by the stadium at a reasonable rate.
