The homer in me says yes. Yes, because it is the University of Tennessee.

Stokley is being demolished and they are building and academic building there as soon as they finish / are almost done with the new music building. Haslam field is behind Stokely

Any idea what kind of academic building?

Should be top 5 behind oregon and oklahoma state.

uh...that'd make it top 3.

and I haven't seen OK State's facility--Oregon's is un-friggin-believable--but I doubt TBoone-University has built a thunderdome of power.

So what is this new building, what will be in it? Where will it be located?

Sorry I don't know anything about this one.

"Thunderdome of Power" is all you need to know.

Is that for the use of the football team only for real? Where is that going to be located at (sorry if it says on the video, I had to watch it without sound)?

With the new football facility scheduled to be completed sometime this year how do you guys feel it will affect recruiting? I read a article the other day that listed the top ten facilities and we were not in it. With other SEC schools such as LSU, Bama, and Florida boasting some of the best in the country do you think this is a big factor when kids choose which school they want to play for? Perosnally I think it will have a BIG affect and in a positive way.

I wish it were done already hear it will be REALLY nice. Heard CDD basically changed EVERY little detail to slow progress down bigtime. According to some in the AD he freaks out over the smallest of details including the font he wears on his own shirt (has to be same or he won't wear) and the type of ink pens his secretary purchases for him....
