The APF & Soccer were part of phase 1 with the end zone seating.

Phase 2 was the football upper deck & office space below it and the new grandstand at the Tigue.

---And I stand corrected---I hear some good things are happening!!! So what is phase 3 or is there one??

[cajunhawk]

Note to self...in the inevitable showdown with Poo Poo Broussard...Crowbar is now deemed ineffective. Back to the drawing board.

Dude, I'd go back to making jewelry.

He was trying to demonstrate his new tiara hard hat design.

"The top tier of facility priorities include improvements to the soccer and track facility, seating and amenity expansion in the south end of Cajun Field, and the new Athletics Practice Facility which will be built adjacent to the Leon Moncla Indoor Practice Facility and the football practice fields."

"The second tier of facility priorities include the remaining proposed improvements to Cajun Field and the renovation and expansion of M.L. “Tigue” Moore Field. "

"The final tier of improvements include a new sports plaza behind the south end of Cajun Field, renovation of the Academic Center, proposed improvements at Earl K. Long Gym and the Culotta Tennis Center and a new basketball practice facility."

I often wonder why UL keeps making improvements to Earl K. Long Gym. It is old and away from the athletic complex. It is a prime location right in the middle of campus where a new academic building could/should be constructed. Why not build a gym/practice facility for both men and women and where the women can play when not playing in the Dome? Aren't we building a new basketball practice facility anyway as the current one will be the new weight room? Seems like we could accomodate both men and women with that facility and open up needed space on campus for academics.

Completely agree. What's the point of spending valuable dollars on EKL gym?

[SlappyCajun]

One. I don't think we are spending a ton of money in EKL. Two, I don't think any students/fans would go to complex to see women's basketball or volleyball. Most go because it's right on campus.

Wonder if putting some money in EKL has something to do with titleIX

Possibly but what he proposed still involves the financial support for the program by building a new facility instead of pumping money into an old building.
