I wonder what sort of renovations they are thinking of for the AA, as that place is almost all concrete.
Swimming pool definitly needs it, as I remember when I used to take swim lessons at Corbett Pool. Also remembering how one of the swim instructers I had when I was 5 told us to jump off of the diving board and to swim to her floaty thing that lifegaurds have. Needless to say, up to that point, we had only been in the shallow end learning the basics of the basics. So when I jumped off, stupid kid that I was, the instructor would not help me as I could not swim worth a crap. Luckily, I got hold of the thing. But I had issues with diving boards and heights for sometime after that.

A central scoreboard hanging from the ceiling would be nice.fromolwyoming wrote:I wonder what sort of renovations they are thinking of for the AA, as that place is almost all concrete.

Exactly - we're doing this when our BB program is falling flat on it's a$$?
You can tell how big a person is by what it takes to discourage him/her.
I agree, but I remember being told years ago that the structure of the AA wouldn't support such a scoreboard. Hence the video board on the west side. Does anyone know differently?WYO1016 wrote:A central scoreboard hanging from the ceiling would be nice.
Agreed. Just about anybody would be better at this point. Too bad we didn't pull the trigger last year and go after Boyle.TwoTone wrote:Spend the money on a good coach who can bring MWC titles
