Dee, have they moved the Training Table out of the University Center location? I'm just curious as to whether we have other food prep locations on campus besides the cafeterias. Does the new Hecht renovation include a food prep area?

At least ONE tree survived with most of its branches! Gotta love those naked palm trees, all over campus...

They are already building the replacement for the Towers on that side of Lake Osceola. Supposedly, Eaton will be renovated as well. They should have enough rooms even without the Towers. For the record, the on-campus football stadium was originally supposed to be where Lake Osceola is now...

I did not, personally. Wish we had iPhones back then. I never owned any photo equipment, but I was friends with people who did (I worked on the Hurricane and Ibis, and was even roommates with one of the photographers who shot nearly everything from that time on slide film). If you were there...

Towers have been slated for teardown for a while. Athletic Center is questionable, as I don't think we've had an aggressive expansion plan until now (outside of the IPF of course). The Hecht family has been very good to UM, would like to see the new facility continue to incorporate the name...

I rode out Andrew (first) in an eastward-facing single in Pearson, and then in the hallway once Mahoney started taking damage and most of the trees in the parking lot bent in half. Good times!

I just mentioned this, I don't think the Hecht family is upset, just maybe not thrilled that all the buildings with their name are slated to be torn down. And I think you could speak on this, as you live nearby, but I think they might have to shut down a few blocks of San Amaro if they intend...

Interesting. And with the Towers being torn down (eventually), the Hecht name is taking a hit. I would imagine that if it has gotten to the "rendering" stage, it is fairly well along with planning/pricing and they could move along to the "name sponsor" phase. Only thing that worries me is...

Sooo...likely a similar situation to when we tore down the old Wellness Center, and we got modular buildings for a year or two over in the old Apartment area? Move the existing office space elsewhere for a year or two, tear down Hecht, rebuild in the Hecht footprint? Makes sense. That...

It doesn't matter, it's still bullsh!te. Not the "improvements" part, but the "players only get one McDonald's Happy Meal per day" part.

Good lord, if the pictures of beer were $3, I can only imagine how much the pitchers of beer cost...

Well, Trabis Ward is dead now, so I guess that's a compliment.

Maybe you've heard of a little thing called the Coral Gables Zoning Committee?

I've said it a bunch of times before, Miami needs to build UP. More height. Take a look at the med campus. Effective use of space.

It's bizarre. The coaches want to be multiple. The recruits want to play in a base 4-man front. But a few dozen CIS porsters have fetishized the 3-4 and turned it into the elusive Holy Grail of College Football.

Yeah, this has been the fakest issue to ever hit the boards over the past 25 years. UM scholarship athletes have always been given a 20-meal plan and certain teams have always had access to a "Training Table" cafeteria. Back in the 80s/90s, it was a little-known cafeteria behind the...

While renderings might be subject to change, can you tell us if the glass wall/practice field was inside or outside? If it is "inside", then I would imagine a teardown/rebuilt of the original Hecht building, as it was not exactly new in the 1980s. If it is "outside" practice fields, then there...
