Looked like they where working hard on the Main roof on Sat. and good to see pic. to keep interested fans abreast of the renovations. I love the Burrow and I'm happy to see it get better. I just wish Basketball Season would start sooner because I miss going to the games. I sincerely hope the FAU/FIU games really sparked an interest in FAU Basketball and 2000 people will come on a regular basis. But it's my hope that in ten years, we'll be playing in an arena like you see on TV... but $70 million isn't pocket change, I understand that... |

I walk by there once a week to see if anything's going on from the outside. Looks like they're mostly doing the roof and inside now, so not a whole lot to see  I'm looking at the FAU shop wondering where it's going to go. I know it's going to go in the lobby, but where in the lobby? I'm curious to see how it all works out. And I'm glad they're (seemingly) getting rid of that piece of crap sculpture in front of the Burrow. |

I have an idea for a temporary "sculpture" for the front of the arena...how about a life sized doherty pinata that we can take whacks at next home opener?? ha ha ha... |

Good! I agree, the thing is terrible...we used to put a temporary by the concession stand when the Heat came for camp...they wouldnt even use it!

they put some new photos up, but it doesnt appear that too mouch has taken place lately...i mean a little more dirt moved...think it is due to the roof being the main focus of the first month or so...but i would have Hoped for something to be well underway by now - ie a scoreboard photo even if not hung yet...based on those photos, it may be moving a little slower than planned... the pics are in the same place on www.fausports.com |

I wish they'd paint the brown awnings blue and the rest of the building red... just make it a huge blue and red buidling that you can't miss from the road. |

Well there's still a while to go before basketball season, like over 4 months I think.
The question is, with the Borrow closed until b-ball season starts, where will volleyball be playing this year? Lynn?
