Plastic Garbage Bags on the Doors

[Kyle]

What is up with the ghetto sun shades on the SW McLeod Center doors and windows? They have been there all season and it looks really trashy. I understanding having to keep the sun's glare out, but there has to be a better solution than duct tape and trash bags.

Some purple and gold fabric shouldn't be THAT expensive, and would certainly look better than trash bags. At least if they intend to keep them covered for any period of time.

The "sheeting" was put on the windows to keep as much sunlight as possible from reflecting into the building during DAYTIME basketball telecasts. Television production crews complained about too much sunlight getting into the building making it very difficult for them to produce a quality picture. The "southern exposure" in the wintertime, on a sunny day, allows the sunlight to flood the building. That is why that was done.

I think it makes sense why it was done, it's just that it looks rediculous to have had trash bags on the doors of a brand new facility for the entire year. We must have enough money to provide a long term solution other than this. Its kind of like the state tournaments in Des Moines at Wells Fargo Arena, they don't want anyone sitting in the first row so they use crime tape to rope of that area every year just doesn't make sense.

They can't buy a purple rug or tarp to put over the doors?

Now that we have a new AD for gosh sake do something. We know why they did it, now fix it. It is a new arena & the black plastic looks very, very trashy.
