My son noticed this. Check out the photo in the upper right hand corner of this picture. Looks like a updated Timmons. Probably trying to get former players to contribute to the effort.

If this is anywhere near true, @Roundball gets the UFFP "Sharp-eye of the Year" award.

It was a great catch by my son.

Updating Timmons might be closer than we think.

If the recent Charging Forward Campaign raised $5M with a goal of $1M, imagine if a campaign was started to renovate Timmons?

This is probably the quiet phase but it just seems realistic now.

There is already a "silent" campaign to renovate Timmons. It's in the seed money stage. As soon as the seed funds are raised, there will be a public announcement and official campaign. Anyone that wants to contribute funds now, can do so by contacting Furman.

Tear down Timmons. Build a replica of The Brown Box but modernized. Make sure to replicate the popcorn smell when you walk through the turnstile into the lobby.

Cutting the baseball team saved the university from closing the doors. With the millions and millions saved by cutting baseballl, you would think there would be a few mil lying around that could be used for Timmons. :roll:

I sometimes burn popcorn in my oven just out of a sense of nostalgia.

Since the baseball to lax field prediction was so accurate :D here is a completely uninformed guess of how a wrap around court could fit inside existing Timmons layout. Included is box seats where stage was and a two court practice facility on the top right corner

Like the Richey Court.
Hope he stays.

Those courts look awfully long and narrow. :x Thought there was going to be some real news. :cry:
