I plan on getting some more of the T&F this weekend: the last time I went by it was all roped off for events going on in the CF parking lot.

I think that we have gotten pic of what the final product of the Quad is, but I will stop there too.

Most importantly I will try to get some of the progress of the demo of the eye-sore buildings.

Oh yeah, I also wanted to mention that according to a few sources, the bulldog mural from the old Union has NOT been re-hung yet, but that it is in a safe place, waiting for its new home.

Does anyone know how many years did we had a bulldog for our mascot?

I took some this weekend. I posted on the Student Union construction thread.

The quad has been finished for some time now with the last photos posted in the Quad reconstruction thread showing the completed project.

Trick question.

On paper 1921.

Real live dog came much much later.

Yes, one of the names of the dog was Gee. The next one was Gee Gee. (If I remember correctly) Elrod Surrett was keeping the dog for a while.

And the Bulldogs were named "Gee" after super popular football coach from 1947-1949 George "Gee" Mitchell 18-8-1.

He was also coach of the Nationally ranked Boxing Team.

Looks like they are starting to clean up the large area to the rear of the building. The only thing that is out there now (that I can see) is an area where they are mixing masons mortar. If they can get this area dressed and graded before the end of the week they will be in much better shape than they are now. Right now they are holding water in ruts all over the place.

The side facing Cajundome Boulevard certainly looks good with all the windows in place.

Took these today of the track facility construction. It's starting to take shape so you get a better idea of what the final product will look like.

That parking lot is sure holding a lot of water. A heavy rain on a Friday night will make it bad for Sat. game day parking.

I don't like all the grey siding. I would rather all red brick.

Same here, the bricks would make it look and cost a lot more. But would definitely make it a better looking facility.

The same could be said about the facade on the end zone facility too.

A red roof like Lourdes Park would have worked.
