Congrats sir. I think our time in P100 overlaps. I joined in 1987, think I went through 1990.

I'm not saying that there is NO merit, I'm just questioning the cost "as an improvement", as opposed to just reconstructing the entire thing. Would love to see them build some sort of weather cover as a part of the structure, not just as a bolt-on piece. Keep in mind, from when I was an...

Thanks! Can you tell I used to be in President's 100? It's where I mastered the art of walking backwards and telling people to look to the right or left while gesturing with my opposite arm...and we had white polos in the 1980s, not orange...

I used to sell ad space for The Miami Hurricane student newspaper to DBJ for his family's carpet business. Zagacki is kind stand-offish though.

Yes, that is completely correct. The Ponce/Alhambra parking garage kinda ate up a tiny corner of the southern end of the easternmost Greentree field, and an IPF expansion would wipe out a big chunk of the northern end of the field. And if you actually look closely on Google Earth, it looks...

It was strange. I'm not being critical of Dan, I just think we were surprised on the stadium capacity response. You may not be able to tell from my pictures, but there are two bleachers down the third base side. BEFORE the meeting, I was thinking "hey, we could just build a permanent...

Who said that? The fields are aligned north-to-south. But the two full 100 yard fields will likely move to the west. They will put a new field where the track is, since the field along the canal will be partially cannibalized by the IPF expansion. So...two fields will move in a westward...

Thanks, Dee, I appreciate it. It's my understanding that the most recent UM BAG masterplan received "pre-approval" for new buildings in the 5-6 story range. As you know, once the Towers are demolished, the tallest buildings on campus will be Mahoney-Pearson and the Richter Library/Ashe...

We asked Dan about Mark Light, and he said we do not need more capacity, so I would NOT expect the permanent grandstand seating to be extended down the third base line to replace the bleachers. However, he did talk about the possibility of doing some sort of overhang for the existing building...

Dude, trust me, they have a ton of that stuff all over the place. I actually did not take THAT MANY pictures, I could have taken a lot more.

So I tried to explain this on other threads, but we have weight rooms for different sports in different areas. Here is the baseball weight room. I tutored this guy! Not like he needed it, both his parents were teachers. BUT STILL!!! I'll take $5M to forget about steroids...

Again, if someone leaves a gate open...

OK, so here is a shot looking eastward from San Amaro-ish. HOF/Knight/IPF to your left. Cobb Track to your right. Parking garage and The Light in the back right. Greentree in the far back center. Same. Ditto. Fun with zoom-in and zoom-out. God**** Lambda Chis...we built that...

OK, so now I've swung around to the RIGHT side of the "old" Hecht (when standing on San Amaro) and I'm headed towards the Cobb Track and The Light. Directly in front of you is the Knight basketball/volleyball fieldhouse, with the Sports Hall of Fame to the right side of the picture. In this...

Look, I just couldn't NOT take this next photo. UM students and alums will recognize the significance (and I'm not sure if you'll be able to see it later on the Ron Fraser plaque, but there is a LOT of duck ****e as you get close to the canals)...for the record, this is the canal on which both...

Yep, first door on the left was Zo's...and he wasn't there...I tried to tell myself that he left early because he didn't want to be late for our lunch, but this was like 10:30 am. Not trying to get anyone in trouble, but there was a celebratory wine/champagne bottle on the left side of his desk...

Him too, I went to UM for a long time and got three degrees... Sorry, had to take a second picture: The key takeaway here is that we need a digital scoreboard that can be updated in real time. Engraving is insufficient here. And @Rellyrell can see the AF1s. And to your left, we are...

Not gonna lie, the second floor was like a maze. Wasn't sure where Schwartz ended and Hecht began or vice versa (@RVACane is free to psychoanalyze that comment). Here is one of the cool photo hallways. Once I went up those stairs from the earlier photo, I could have kept going up to a large...

OK, adjust your eyes, we're about to go inside. When you stalk follow those players inside, this is the right side of the lobby. There were some barricades up, but essentially, the right side of the lobby (but farther back) is where the lockers are, the cafeteria area was directly in front...

OK, here is the front of the "old" Hecht Athletic Center. You can see that it is 2 stories and had almost no windows (those 2nd floor windows are for the old vaulted lobby which took up quite a bit of space, but they have expanded some of the offices to take up part of the old lobby, so the new...
