OT: Clemson building something insane...

[jr4750]

The haves' (vs the have nots) seem to be going all out in the facility arms race. 60 person cold tub, lap pool, wiffle ball field... holy H$%^!

I wonder what the real value of some of that stuff is.

It will also make losing to us even more painful.

Kidding. Sort of.

I don't want to be in a tub with 59 other people.

That was my first thought too. Must be a southern thing

 

[orangeinjersey]

at some point, simply paying players has to be cheaper than all of this

No thanks.

59 other dudes. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Remember, it is critical that these things are built to enhance the experience of student-athletes at an academic institution*.

Critical.

proposed cost is $62 million; and raised through private donations. How much do you think this would cost in Syracuse? $100 mil or more?

It wouldn't cost a penny. Chip & Millhouse would have that 60 man tub funded in less than a day.

Which raises the question - do they want to be football players or fancy fellows?

this is why i'm not caught up in the relative arms race. we didn't have enough money for basic stuff before. i'm not going to sweat it if we don't have a wiffle ball field.

most players would rather have 20 bucks than a wiffle ball field

Nice to see you back. I'm assuming you haven't been gone b/c you're involved in Trump's campaign.

Isn't the ability to play infront of 40,000+, let alone 70,000+ in Clemson, paired with a free education and shot at the NFL enough?

I was overthinking it. Have actually seen that statue in Brussels. Very small. Smaller than Trump's hands.

I remember Brussels ... not because I sell/buy diamonds. But because they run all the European flights through there and they put you through security 3 times.
