WOS95 Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 there's been a lot of posting about how much upgrades to the stadium will cost and how much a new coach will cost, but what about other expenses related to the football program. new football uniforms outdoor/indoor practice facility assistant coach salaries new band uniforms new band instruments. expanding the current lu staff to maintain the stadium new cheerleader uniforms
HouTexan Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 There was also mention of a drill team (LU never had one that I'm aware of).
Guest abovetherim Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 This is the first I've read about a indoor practice facility. The cost would be about $5 million for one 120 yards long. I know from endzone to endzone is 100 yards but you need the endzones and both are 10 yards each. Would be a great recruiting tool but this is the first I've seen it mentioned.
HouTexan Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 and where would you put it? 120 yds of open space anywhere around Lamar is hard to find.
Guest abovetherim Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 Well, Lamar use to practice to the south of Cardinal Stadium and I believe there is room there for 2 full size practice fields. I guess one of the fields could be use for a indoor facility but this is the first I've heard anything about this subject. Agree, 120 yards may be hard to find around Cardinal Stadium.
WOS95 Posted May 12, 2008 Author Report Posted May 12, 2008 i was just wondering about a practice facility, i havent heard anything either. sorry if my post started some questions. i was just wondering about related costs to starting a football team.
