I thought the statue and flags are on private property. Didn't the old man die and whomever inherited the property had the statue removed.

It is and a court came in and said it needed to be removed. Now it is just left unkept, bringing more attention to it, than had it stayed.

Years ago there was a master plan and maybe revisions to it that showed a academic building (IIRC) where the old ROTC bldg exists.

And the statue on 65, unless you knew, it was just there. Now the statue is gone but the flags are still up, not kept up at all.

Yeah the flags stay up. That’s bad enough.

As someone who doesn’t game much (I have a Switch with Mario Kart and a handful of games), is the XBOX series S 512 GB to handle Madden / NCAA?

Yeah, I don't think the Series S would have many problems handling the new NCAA and Madden FB games. I don't know the most about the Xbox models since I have a PS5, but I would presume the Series X would just have better load times and (maybe) slightly better graphics compared to the Series S. I still stand by what I said in that the Series S would be the way to go if you are only going to use it to play the NCAA game. The Series X would be for people who would play multiple games and have concerns of hard drive space and game performance.

The track was ripped out when we went D1 in the late 90’s. I’ll never forget that, I was on the track team when Lee Fowler came to talk to us about it. I was a freshman and was saddened to know I’d be spending my college career training on the president’s lawn.

The true track you are right. I was thinking it was still there before but I was wrong. Was just the concrete base that they pulled up a decade ago. Had to go look at an old picture to clarify what I was thinking in my head. Key word...old.

What about moving to natural grass?

As a football parent, I prefer grass. I've seen many injuries from turf even in the Smurf and Pee-Wee levels. And holy crap does that stuff get hot.
Honestly though, the upkeep cost for irrigation piping, water bills, mowing, regular painting, etc is probably a bit more over time as a single turf install. But grass looks soooo much better, especially with some landscaping around it.

It is. Very much so.

Was installed for the '14 season, so this will be the 11th season.

In theory replacing it should cost less as the track removal happened last time, but with inflation and all it'll probably be the same.

Blue Raiders love new artificial surface at Floyd Stadium.

I’m not a gamer anymore, but I have a Series S. It’ll fit your needs if you feel like gaming without breaking the bank. I preordered 25, and I’m sure I’ll play it 3 times before I get bored. I miss 2005 me that built a MT dynasty that was invited to the SEC haha!

We’re due for a replacement it seems. The old turf was 8 years old when it was replaced. This one is 10 years old now.

This isn't true at all. MTSU has progressed academically steadily through the years, and has become known as a respectable American University.

When were we a non-respectable university? Because I attended during the era of Dr Walker and things were pretty good. What’s drastically better?!

I'm surprised there's been no reports of unofficial visits anywhere for Jenna McClendon thus far. Only thing I saw on her account was her showing thanks to MT for its scholarship offer last April.

MidTennFootball · Jun 30, 2024

Won't complain if they can sign her but would be a curious signing since MT needs a 5

Shayne_Pickering · Jun 30, 2024

Might have to grab some Burrito Xpress and go watch her play this year when I’m back in Cleveland. Bradley team once again loaded

That’s the one I was looking into. Sams has a pretty good bundle package for the Series S.

That Jax St vs Coastal game is probably the best from a competitive standpoint. Also think SHSU can pull one out against Rice; the others are not likely.

Yeah I give me SHSU and 12 points all day long. I could easily see them winning that outright.

Haven't seen it posted yet, but the baseball team got a commitment from Cooper Clapp. Played it State Championship with Hardin County a couple years ago. Went to Notre Dame for a year, then to Juco in FL. Solid player at SS. Dad, Stubby, played in the bigs and is current 1st base coach for St. Louis Cardinals. Good get for the boys in blue!

Had solid numbers, and then you add in that he was only a redshirt freshman. Did have 7 errors defensively tho.
