Great pic. Thank you for posting it. Buchtel Filed was better than I thought it would be. We have a proud history even though thru the last 10 years we have been up and down, mostly down. Let's not give up on our team. We can achieve so much more with the right attitude, vision and staff. I hope this is a beginning. Time will tell.

That was our practice field in the early 60's with locker room at the N end.  There was a square 1/4 mile track around the field with a baseball field from the SW corner that had very small portable bleachers.  At that time, it also was used as our ROTC parade grounds.

His study is not a fair analysis. It is lazy journalism. 

 

 

Could someone provide some narrative to explain why this is good news (and/or lazy journalism)?
