New TTU Campus Pictures - 7/28/2012

Spent a couple of hours on campus this morning taking pictures.

This group includes shots of the new clubhouse at the Rawls Golf Course, the new indoor practice facility at the John Walker Soccer Complex, the new residence and dining hall at 19th and Boston, and various other pictures.

Had a chance to drive the new portion of the Marsha Sharp Freeway that ties into I-27. The new section has made a huge difference driving towards campus from the interstate.

How to Pronounce Doege Correctly

Texas Tech quarterback Seth Doege's last name as been pronounced every way but the right way by the national media, so the Texas Tech Athletic Department has come up with a video to help pronounce the senior quarterback's last name.

New TTU Campus Pictures - 7/17/2012

Here are some new pictures from around campus.

They include shots of the Kent R. Hance Chapel, the new residence and dining hall at 19th and Boston, Jones AT&T Stadium, and the new clubhouse and team buildings at the Rawls Golf Course.

The landscaping around the chapel has been completed.

The new residence and dining hall is in it's final month and a half of construction. They have put in a new parking lot directly east of the new building and landscaping is going in at a rapid pace. They are widening Boston Avenue between 18th and 19th and putting up a fence on the west side of Boston to control pedestrian traffic.

There are some subtle changes at Jones AT&T Stadium. The time and temp sign in the southeast corner is no longer there and a new Coca-Cola/Texas Tech sign is in its place.

The Texas Tech Club has a new small outdoor seating area.

I haven't heard if the Goin' Band is actually moving to the south endzone, but they are putting in new steps from the south stands to the field.
