Tough stretch

[Louis Tully]

Not having a practice facility is weird. They had one in the Joe Williams days. Did they tear it down?

They practiced in the “Old Gym” in FUBeAR’s day. Other than Football Coaches lunchtime pickup games, it was dedicated to Men’s Hoops. Those FU Hoops Teams won Championships.

I think we had a Women’s Team at the time & I think they practiced in the PAC.

Both buildings are still standing. So, with Timmons, we have 3 Basketball Buildings on campus.

Prolly wants a dedicated S&C Center for Hoops. I think a lot of the Teams have to share what exists now…

I know we won a bunch of SoCon Football Championships with 2 benches, 1 incline bench, 2 squat racks, 2 deadlift pads, 2 sets of dip bars, a few dumbbells, 2 Nautilus machines, and a rarely-used Universal Multi-Station rig in the basement of the “Old Gym.” And that was after a major upgrade.

Get off my lawn. Win something.

If the asphalt courts are still down the hill behind the old gym we have 4 basketball facilities on campus.

Nope…just the 3.

The basketball court in the old gym was not regulation size. Is the court still there? Why am I thinking there is not one because it was converted to the women's volleyball facility?

Update. It's the old Alley Gym, now the home of Furman volleyball.https://furmanpaladins.com/facilities/alley-gymnasium/5

Maybe we should go back to practicing on a non regulation court.

Most teams have dreary smelly cramped indoor courts. Dins have spacious, natural, green outdoor courts!

Good recruiter could sell that!
