Indoor Practice Facility

would be nice to get some updates without having to go through some type of pay service. Whatever happened to gobison? They used to provide updates on the shac, why not this? The forum sucks and so do izzo, kolpack and all the others hiding their crappy coverage behind a paywall.

...and get off my lawn!!!!!

I have some pictures but when I tried to upload them, they were too big

It looks just like the pictures. They are starting to do the back buildings now. Scoreboards are up along University

The front facing the outdoor fields has a how you like me know UNI, number of garage doors.

The difference is we have less garage doors than National Championships.

Hugely functional design though. Ability to seamlessly practice both indoors and out, with built in observation decks. Everything seems very practical.

Easy to simulate crowd noise during practice or outdoors if we have a road game and need to simulate cold, wind or heat. We also have a 2nd outdoor lighted field. Separate locker room so much more convenient for players, who right now have to go to the dome and then walk or drive to the practice fields and back. Separate team meeting room. Separate weight room so players don't have to come in at odd hours. It will make the players happier because the bubble barely gets above freezing during the dead of the winter. Shorter walk to the SHAC.

Remember 2010 when we only had grass field's with no lights and Dacatah Field had dim lights and 80s style astro turf? And the weight room was less than half the size in the BSA and was for the entire athletic department?

Your point is completely valid. but I still had to chuckle, what opponents does NDSU need to simulate crowd noise for? I mean sure, there have been like 5 games where it would have been useful in the last decade, but doesnt change the fact that nearly every single away game is a graveyard from an atmosphere perspective.
