It was great day to see the facility such an upgrade!
This will also be used for athletic dining which will be great for athletes

Delaware:

They just launched new, professional athletics podcast. In first episode they spoke a little about facilities. Also included interview with Joe Flacco.

Fred Rullo Stadium (the field hockey stadium) receiving new turf and stadium will be ready in Oct (team is playing away games and natural sites until stadium is ready). Field Hockey is also joining the MAC in 2027. $4 Million renovation.

Bob Carpenter Center (basketball)
Installed new LED lighting for pregame and timeout lighting effects. AD also talks about how they are putting more focus on basketball.

Delaware Stadium (football stadium)
expansion of Delaware Stadium's north endzone isn't canceled but is on-hold while they focus on NIL. Because capacity is no longer the driving factor for recruitment, they are making sure the priority is NIL

Would be my biggest grip about Kenny. Upside potential maybe the best in the conference but not much effort from administration so far.

One final review/overview of NEW WKU Baseball Facilities.

Goes pretty fast. I had to actually slow the video to .75 speed.

I’m glad they are finally working through Floyd to get it more modern and fan friendly. Turf, video board, new facility, now updating the home side. Moving in the right direction.

By the time they finish Phase 3, there will be a quarter of BN dollars spent by athletics and hopefully all the underperforming coaches and administrators will have no excuses.

Hopefully there'll be a new president who won't tolerate underperforming coaches and AD.

MT also getting

• a new $5.8 million student-athlete enhancement center
  

• new $4.5 million softball locker-rooms and coaches offices (Title 9, I believe, due to basebal getting turf)

New turf is in at The Don baseball

KSU has So much potential!
