Is there a reason why they put fau in the center and not the the athletics owl like is on the field on campus?
Is is it because we are renting it and thats all they allow us to put…..i hate that thing in the middle
Yes! the have that generic FAU logo because we are renting. I asked Angelos about it and he said it was really expensive to get the logo on the field especially when you have more teams playing at Lockhart. It does not make any sense to me because I bet the other schools are not using their logos. FAU is the largest tenant and pays more money than anybody else. I think i is just lack of commitment from the athletics and marketing dept. In addition, why is not FAU demanding better field conditions? I say this because the field looks like crap and you can see the dust when the players are running.

The FAU in the middle of the field was off-center. …. way off center. My guess is because of those sand piles and poor field conditions. Instead of the FAU going from the 40 to the 40, it went from the 47ish to the 33ish area.
If you look in past photos the "A" has never split the 50 yard line. I think its because the F is wider then the U and it evens its out.

The Owls practice fields are well taken cared of - there should be no reasons why the Owls can't have better field conditions to play on. The problems lies with the management company (the City I presume) that is responsible for the upkeep at Lockhart. The one thing that I have notice is - they don't care, the conditions have been getting worse every year, broken seats, not being repaired (some are season ticket holders that have complained numerous times) the field conditions, etc……
It is clear they have no intentions of putting any money into the upkeep and have become slumlords.
We just need to get out of there.

Re: Field conditions today...
We keep complaining over and over, but is there anything we can do?
Maybe we can get some signatures?
Maybe if we all show up at Angelo's office? something like it.
we shouldn't be playing under those conditions. FAU is paying for that. I think it is $25,000 per game.
any solution?
GO OWLS!!
