Awe, I love the smell of plastic and rubber in spring.

Tofu hot dogs and Roasted peanut substitutes for all.

Any comments from the players about their like or dislikes of our new field surface?

Hate to be a "downer"....but, anyone notice the power T is the wrong color?? Notice the checkerboard colors on the dugouts. That is the correct color of orange.

should be seeing some hot shots off that field...it is pretty but I'm still trying to get used to it...

GO VOLS...RECRUIT LIKE HECK!

Sometimes can be the same color orange paint, what you are painting it on changes the look.

Amazing how colors appear different due to their materials and how they absorb/reflect light.

I'm not a big fan of turf in general, but I think it looks really good.

Today is a great example of the benefit of turf. The team can spend 10 hours if they want, on the field. This time last year, a night of hard rain would have prevented crucial prep time.

Great point. I think it was a great move by the program. What’s more important having grass because it’s traditional or more wins and better player development?

The dugouts have several years being bleached in the sun, too.

Looking ahead at the forecast for this weekend it looks like the turf could pay immediate dividends.

 

[RollerVol]

well, heck, let's hope the drainage system is working then...

GO VOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd be willing to bet that UT paint color PMS 151 was specified specifically in the contract and mixed to exact proportions.
