Exciting.

My guess is the football practice facility / indoor track will soon follow. Then, we can make the much needed upgrades to the Glass House.

i really can't improve on this. but here's where i put my interest.

1. hoops
2. football
3. baseball
4.
5.
6.
152. chick hoops
153.
154.
223. tennis.


all kidding aside i love seeing improvements made at all of our schools. even one that claims they're a lock for the alliance. maybe this tennis complex is the tipping point that sewed it up.

They should probably limit their use of the word "Big" in press releases. If someone said Big Announcement and I woke up to tennis I would be ticked.

I agree.

It kind of looks like a few double wide trailers welded together in the rendering.

I disagree with your slam.
The facility is nice....just not football related.

Maybe it's just the rendering, but it looks like sheet metal on the sides.

The inside looks fine.

Feel free to post a picture of UNC-Charlotte's indoor tennis facility so we can compare it to this rendering.

Aww snap, middle has thrown down the gauntlet for tennis facilities.

You guys just got trolololololololololololed by the guy who announced this lmao. Well hey at least middle can hold the Sun Belt Conference Championship in Tennis now?

I think the indoor track would have been a better idea.....

Hell, we have one of those. We've had it for a good while now too and I like ours a whole lot more.

Those courts are nice. Where they practice during the Winter?

Winter? Never heard of it.

For the most part only rain is a problem here and usually not too much.

When the UGA AD toured our campus, he didn't mention Troys. He did say that our tennis stadium was among the best in the nation though.

At no point did I say Charlotte had better indoor tennis facilities, but I would hate it if the AD decided to put something made out of sheet metal on campus.

I can see why you like your facilities better though:

Those are some fancy bleachers you have there in Troy. What is capacity crowd, 25? Our facility cost 5 million dollars, funded with private donations. Yours cost $700,000 and was co-funded by the city

it's Tennis...i mean, who gives a ****?
