Absolutely not. I am referring to the pre-approval concept by Clemson BOTs to proceed on developing further study and financing on what they refer to as a rebuilt basketball arena. What the heck does this mean? Another redo of Littlejohn? Quite vague. Not surprising considering that mess they called an upgrade to Littlejohn when OP was the coach.

the ground it's built upon would constitute a "rebuild", I would suppose. Maybe some of the foundation might stay too?

I suppose the question is whether for all practical purposes will Littlejohn be razed to the ground?...

No, it will not be "razed to the ground"...

the exterior walls and roof will remain. The interior will be gutted and completely reconstructed within the existing shell. It's a much more comprehensive project that what was done 10 years ago. Hopefully, the rusted metal on the outside will go away this time.

What are your thoughts on the new baseball additions?

It appears they have scaled-back the project significantly compared to the original design.

Walls and roof stay with upgrades to both and the guts entirely gone from what DRad has been saying.
