Good grief, nobody uses HID lighting anymore. Get into the 21st century and put some LED fixtures in there. This reminds me of when the architectural school designed the "new" business building and left off sprinklers. Who's running this show?

Those look like lights the construction workers are using before they install the facility lighting

Even with an unfinished state of the art practice facility in construction, you still get folks that find some kind of negative criticism about something pertaining to Tiger basketball. Smh!

They should definitely pick up all that metal someone left on the floor. The players might get cut when they're running ladders in the sawdust.

Guess we should get used to a low ceiling.

How can we expect to recruit with such a facility holding us back.
