The most beautiful thing about this is......we have a way to pay for this facility and it will be done....it aint just a video
We still cool?
If anybody wants to giggle at anybody else's frustration, well, here you go.

When we get rolling on a thread like this, we usually get some intervention from folks with other affiliations that feel the need to characterize our enthusiasm as "delusions of grandeur." I hear nothing but crickets, and its been that way for some time now. Why? Because we are graduating from hope to reality...and they know it.
Boom, just by looking at it, Reinhardt is getting straightened out.
I'm sure access on Reinhardt will be restricted on gamedays between the Oak by the Tigue and parking lot entry across from the practice field. Looks like a pretty cool promenade from the facility to Cajun Field.
On a side note, this will also tie in neatly with the bike plans the University has, which in turn could dovetail nicely with LCG's bike plans.
On a side-side note, this whole corridor (Cajundome Blvd from Johnston to Eraste Landry) REALLY has some incredible potential. Hopefully, Tee Joe and LCG Joe have had some talks about this area could really blow up with some forethought.
T's idea from a chat some time ago......i found it profound. Blackham+barn would be an awesome location to expand dorms. Easily enough acres to add another 3-4k on campus dorm/apartments same as those just finished with ample space for multistory garages lined up on back side.
Location perfect for student athletes too and their tight early am schedules
If I had the money and lived in a perfect world, we'd demolish Blackham and the barns and build a 6,000 seat basketball-specific arena with an accompanying basketball complex with coaches offices, practice courts, etc. Maybe get rid of (historic) Earl K. Long and pump up the on-campus parking or housing in that space. Or pump a ton of money into the Cajundome (although, as much as I love it, the Cajundome is too big for most NBA teams, let alone a mid-major college program, even when we're at our best).
