Seems like they over-killed it from their one recent championship. I wonder how much bigger ours would be...

It is embarrassing that we don't even have a shovel in the ground yet. I'm not sure we'll ever recover from the many ways in which Hathaway completely wasted the immense capital we built up over a decade of dominance.

If it has this glowing aurora, we won't ever lose a recruit.

Calipari is such a jackass...but no doubt about it the place is nice and probably makes UConn's facility look like the motor inn. I think they went over kill on the 2012 championship. Its literally represented in every area. If that team went undefeated or something it would make more sense. Theres no reason why that year should stand out over the others

"all of our student athletes are encouraged to use this facility. Softball, baseball, tennis, etc." -Coach Cal


Hmmm...is that the loophole?

Except that the guy who won the NC that year was apparently in charge of decorating the place.

They are encouraged to use it for tutoring the basketball players.

You would never know, UK won previous titles. It's all about 2012, as if nothing worth mentioning happened prior. I wonder if the empty drawers on the prop desk were filled with stacks of cash, banners once hanging in the rafters, and FedEx time cards from his Memphis office. Where was WWW personal urinal?

Not really that wowed. Most of the top schools have similar facilities. I liked the Final Four court concept - but they kind of overkilled it.

The only thing that concerns me with our facility is that UConn is so unimaginative that I doubt there will be anything unique about it. I'd love us to incorporate innovative architecture, the latest technologies and classy interior design, but it will probably just be your standard big boy facility.

You have to give props to Calipari. Everything he does, he does it in style. You might not want to admit but it was nice overall. They did overdue the whole championship and final four thing. But as a teen, which most of you all know I am, this is really nice from my perspective. If I was a player being recruited by him and you walk into this locker room with the championship floor and how nice this place is, why wouldn't I want to go their? This and their dorms that they have which their is a video for I couldn't see anything more impressive for a player my age.

Wonder if we have the 2011, 2004, 1999 FF court. You could put one each at the locker rooms at Gampel, XL and the new practice facility ;)

I know all of your guys hate towards Cal. Then to the person who said the 3 Nat'l floors the the three different locker rooms. That would be a great idea if we had them.

Keep up this grammar and syntax and that's where you'll be going--except not to play basketball.

You want to be a writer, so I hope you'll appreciate the following:

Overdo; not overdue.

If you were being recruited by him, why would I be walking into that locker room?

Go there; not their.

For which there is a video; not "which their is a video for."

Like Mau, I enjoy your enthusiasm. Your point is well-taken that Calapari is impressive to those who don't know better or who don't care. I agree. We're here to make you know better and care.

Looks like they missed one. Hopefully they will make another pass Monday night.

Because at this point (even more so in a couple years) the 2012 NC will be the only one that visiting recruits will have been alive for

Sorry, I misunderstood from your signature that you intended for people to follow you for recruiting news. I've seen you fail miserably on that score, so I thought I'd help with the writing. Never mind. The world needs ditch diggers, too, Danny.
