Cohen stated that 7 of the 12 lofts in the outfield have been taken. Dudy Noble has to be done before February, athletics had their highest GPA ever 3.0. The Hump will be getting a makeover including a fan shop and possible restaurant . Going to build an indoor tennis facility. Baseball could rank in the top 3 in recruiting with this class. Mens tennis is returning all 6 players from last years team, could be in contention for a national championship.

I was hoping they would release what the locker room, weight rooms and the other stuff that is being added to the Dude is gonna look like. Seeing Kentuckys new facility has me wondering. All I've ever seen them post is pictures of the stadium and lofts.
It was still by far the best arena in the State until Ole Miss finished The Pavilion. It’s not at Tad Pad levels yet, but it definitely needs work.
If they spend what is rumored on the hump, nobody will be talking about the pavilion.
Hope this turns out better than new locker room and recruiting lounge.
Very underwhelming.
Very underwhelming.
I think it's fine, and on par with everywhere else. It's a significant upgrade from what we had. It's only used a handful of times every year.
A few years ago the campus plan was to replace the hump. Now I hear large renovation. Is the new arena off the table with this?
Still ging to lift the roof or are they going to take seats out? If there are rumors of a restaurant, I could see them taking out some of the upperdeck seats behind the goal.
I remember seeing that like in the area across the street from the Sanderson Center parking lot. Are they not going to do that anymore? I think it would be better to start over instead of keeping yourself in the old shell.
New arena has been off the table since we dumped several million dollars into the practice facility that is attached to the Hump. We’re not gonna have two 10,000 seat arenas on campus, and we aren’t tearing down a building that is part of the architecture of a multi million dollar facility that we built less than 10 years ago.
Per that one former Auburn coach on Gameday Bunker, the lockers used to be a nail in a piece of plywood.
Construction money doesn’t go nearly as far as people think. Haven’t been in that business for a minute but my parents Church we’re trying to add a gym with kitchen 2 classrooms and bathrooms. Bricked and all it was going to be close to $1mill. Had to rework the plans for over a year. Now it’s a metal building with a gym and 2 bathrooms and much smaller kitchen.
Well, in his defense, it is game day today and we still don't have a clear understanding of how it looks in it's completion. the administration has done a ****** job showing a complete view of anything other than the angles that we have seen and nothing but the ceiling of the recruiting lounge. It's frustrating that the fans aren't clued in anymore. I get more info from contractors and local businesses than I do from the athletic dept.
