Con: a lot more injuries. Plus, they grow a supergrass right down the road in foley taht is as fast as turf
there are not a lot more injuries on these new turfs, they are fantastic
the biggest con with these turfs are the heat buildup in the south, but that can be managed. there is very little maintenance savings, just different types of maintenance
if we could actually grow that foley shite, then yea it would be great...but our grounds crew is absolutely incompetent - so nothing short of firing them, or switching to field turf, is going to solve it

I say that is BS! I have been on West Monroe's turf for over 20 home games and that included games in September and that is a complete MYTH!!! You could not tell a difference...it was hot everywhere, in the air and ground.
