The Facilities

Colt Brennan makes some much needed noise about the facilities. Here's an excerpt, but definitely read the whole article by Stephen Tsai.

Brennan was hesitant to make waves, but felt compelled to voice the widely held concerns to The Advertiser as a means to sparking change.

With the team's recent success — 11-3 last season — he wondered if there are any discussions to improve the facilities.

"There's a good chance we could be a preseason top-25, but we're still envious of other WAC teams' facilities," Brennan said.

...

"We were signing helmets, T-shirts, all of the memorabilia with that UH logo," Brennan said, "and the athletic department doesn't get hardly any of that money. This program has been able to have success with a lack of resources ever since coach (June) Jones got here (in 1999). Imagine if we did have the resources. Imagine where this school would be 10 years from now."

Brennan acknowledged he might receive some backlash for his views, but "I want to see change. I want to see this school way better off when I leave. That's a big reason why I came back. When the seniors leave, we want to know our younger teammates will be taken care of. And I'm not just talking about football. I want to see the entire sports program become better."

It's amazing. There's still no soap in the locker rooms. Let's just hope some changes start to take shape soon.

So uhhh, when does the next fiscal year start?
