I LOVE IT!

"Don't let handlers or jaded HS coach tell you different "

 

[rubigtimenow]

Yes, thanks Jeff, super glad you've stuck around for the long term and have not tied your support to a specific coach.
Much appreciated!!
Excited to see this short term but expensive project's end result in just a few months.

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Very nice!

"Don't let handlers or jaded HS coach tell you different"

In other words,

1. Don't let handlers use you to make connections, jobs and money off you.

2. Don't let jaded HS coaches who want to be sucked up too and wined and dinned by all the other schools, tell you to ignore Rutgers.

Mr. Towers knows how the real worlds works and he won't let the leeches in.

 

[srru86]

Very nice and Thanks.

Thank you Jeff Towers !!!!!!!

Who are these 'handlers'?

 

[Newbrunfus]

Jeff, thank you for your continued support and love of Rutgers.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

I guess you can say he Towers above the rest...

Looking good.

 

[GeorgeStreet]

I love Jeff Towers' avatar.

 

[RUSK97]

This is NOT what I was expecting. I really thought there might be some cheesy 3 foot-high chain-link fence that looks rag-tag amateur-hour. This looks like something you might see on a FBS team's campus.

 

[HeavenUniv.]

What a great quote !!! Now if we could get him to repeat Julie Hermanns quote about the Star-Liar !!!

 

[RUHotTrumpetMonkeyLove]

Am I the only one confused by the Silent Willie reference?

They could be 7v7 coaches, "uncles", etc.

Just daydreaming here, but I wish we could build brick-faced walls like these along the entire Rt.18 right of way through campus property. Both sides of Rt.18, through the eco preserve, Busch and Livingston. Would look great.

Yep, though unfortunately that would cost about $3 trillion considering what NJ masons get paid.

That visual will engender more enthusiasm on game day. Rather than walking past a fence, seeing that inviting and badass entrance to the practice field is another step toward a B1G appearance.

 

[Colbert17!]

If it was basketball they would be AAU coaches.

@koleszar will make donation of time and materials?

 

[ArminRU]

That entire area will look big time once done. Props to everyone involved.

Just a thought, maybe we can get Mexico to build this wall you speak of?

That's a helluva lot of brick. You might want to call Garden State brick face and stucco.(looks like crap though)

My guys love laying brick, but I get done with that donation you better name the stadium and RAC after me. Funny thing, I actually know some of the guys who are doing the masonry over at the practice fields. I also know the guy who did the grading work over at the bubble.

 

[Jim_from_RU]

After this is complete, $ and resources should focus on hoops.

 

[rumikenike]

I'd love to see that brick style surround the field inside the stadium instead of the black fence.

Does your company do paver/hardscaping work too? If so, shoot me a private message. I may have a project later this year at our new place that we close on in July in Wall.

Mistakes happen. Brain fart on my part, and fixed. If only you could own up to all of your mistakes on this board, Mr. Naivete.

Maybe so, but have you ever noticed some of the decorative highway noise barriers in states like Arizona and Texas?
Much nicer than what we typically see on the east coast.
Maybe we should be hitting up the NJ DOT to build these walls.

Or they could just use 4 X 8' sheets of this stuff:

no new recruiting predictions on the four and five stars for this class?

Never made any predictions, Mr. Naivete.

 

[srru86]

Wow - that sure beats the hurricane fencing with vinyl sheeting.

yes you did Mr .Confused.

Looking good.MEDIA=tweet]872137529763541001[/MEDIA]

Looks nice. After staring at it, I wondered if the left side opening could have been engineered as a giant "R" out of brick and the right side construction shaped like a "U" Just daydreaming a little. Very nice piece of construction and thank you for its creation!
