Subject: On facilities, Fordham is the true cellar dwellar

For basketball you've got the Hart Center, whereas Fordham has the very old Rose Hill Gym. Haven't seen your lockerrooms but I'm guessing they're much better than ours, which are in the basement of RHG.

For football, you've got the 23,000 seat horseshoe stadium of Fitton Field, whereas Fordham has the 7,000 seat risers (all on one side) of Coffey Field. Again, haven't seen your lockerrooms but I'm sure they're better than ours. We will be getting a new FieldTurfed field though for both the practice grid and the playing grid.

For baseball, you've got a dedicated baseball diamond on Fitton, whereas Fordham's baseball team has a diamond on one corner of Coffey Field, with the football grid making up the left and center field area. The FieldTurfing of Coffey should help us in this respect.

We have only an intramural hockey team (they're decent for an intramural team, from what I've heard) and no hockey rink of our own. I would love for us to have even the small capacity rink that HC has.

I don't know or care what Fr. Brooks did or didn't do to your athletics program, but for what it's worth remember that it could always be worse. You could be forced to do with much less, as Fordham has, which of course probably adds insult to your "injury" considering how well we've done with those inadequate facilities.
