I think K-State should be more "edgy" and "rough" with a practice facility. Meaning, we install an outdoor pavement facility with chainlink nets and graffiti on the backboard. That'll make the 5-stars transition better from the Bronx to the Apple

I'm sure the LHC Bill Snyder's of the world would just love that.

pretty sure William Staley won't let this happen because of the new leadership studies building.  he was all like, "no one can build anything for 5 years after I build my xanadu!"  At least I think that's what dax was saying.   :dunno:

I am very late to this thread, but who the eff requests something like that, or grants a request like that?  Jesus, I wish I had gone to Texas.

$20M can get you a pretty decent facility.  Nothing extraordinarily eye popping.  Nothing that will win recruits who are interested in amazing facilities.

It will get you a good sized building that can hold 3 courts, a decent-to-nice locker room, a decent film room, and a few OK offices.

hmm.  not good enough.  what can they get for $45 million.

This.  But purple and with basketball courts inside. 




dam just redo nichols gym!

Couldn't you convert Ahearn into a practice facility?? Make it with modern amenities with an added a bit of nostalgia and history.

There's already a practice facility in Ahearn.  And it has three courts!  (I think!)

Those pools play an important role in the MWF 8:30 weight training PE elective class.

they actually already have a basketball goal in one of the pools at the nat.  we used to go there and play water basketball.  could be an edge for our team...if they can play underwater, they can play anywhere.

just spitballing here.

Yes, it has 3 or 4 courts but I believe that's where our various club sports (men's volleyball for instance) tend to hold their practices. Not sure if that's also where our women's volleyball team practices when the tennis team/track and field are using the main area of the facility in the winter.
