I am going to guess that poster hasn't every played an organized sport by his responses.

There's an easy way to tell on this site. Former Tech. athletes have a blue checkmark.

That's just for a gt athlete. Anyone who even played high school ball would know the locker room isn't just a locker room

3 years ago son coach and his assistant coaches re did their hs locker room during off season. Its a real poor rural area east of dallas and had never won at football.
First year great improvement. Second year first ever district championship . Third year another district championship and first playoff victory.

A little paint started team buy in. Then they out worked the other guys during summer. Walla - a football team that never quits. Also helps to have stud running back

Its great to see the improvements. Will payoff big time. Last year is gone

This is gonna probably sound lame, and might not have been feasible...but...I wish we could have removed those wood lockers and donated them to a high school or some such rather than bust up good woodwork with a sledge...for a video.

Yeah that space needs an update.

Upon further viewing...I don’t think it’s actually hardwood...looks more like a particle board with veneer finish. So disregard.

I’m pretty sure that’s a violation. Not 100% sure tho

I’d be ok donating it to a YMCA or whatever also. But after re-evaluating the busted up wood, and rethinking the cost of removing and relocating them in good condition....probably not realistic or economically wise.

If it's not, we'll find a way to make it one #wecandothat

And immediately self report it. Then sit our entire football team for 6 weeks while the NCAA investigates it.

We can give it to unc and let them donate it. I'm sure nothing will be said then.

That's cheap *** particle board. The lockers wouldn't have survived the trip to a new home. I hope this time around we can afford better materials.

Oil and gas monery
O u getting out of locker in trailers ne,t to stadium into shiney new facilities.

U Texas breaks the 200,000,000 per year athletic budget
OKLA state had a 236,000,000 budget.

Big programs generally have room to spread out and the money to make it glitzy.

Our space is limited on campus , so our design must be well thought out. Its all good.

Maybe the particle board was a conscious choice for safety reasons. A guy gets frustrated and angry in the locker room and punches his locker...better to have particle board he can punch through instead of solid oak to shatter his hand.

Our guys don’t punch lockers...they punch each other.
