Vandy moving RF fence in for construction of new building

Is this true? I have become leary of posts on Twitter, but seems real.

Will be 2nd or 3rd smallest field behind Tennessee.

Just like every thing else about their program, their field is a fricking joke.

Too bad it doesn't displace the whistler.

I remember Jay’s first season or maybe 2023, he said “some of the fields in this league are real bandboxes. Particularly in the East”

I guarantee you that they’re doing this because they know they play LSU at home this year. This is something they’re trying to do to see if they gives them an advantage over us.

THEY SHOULD OF NOT OF DONE THIS. I hope it backfires in their damn face is gloriously.

So do you really believe a school would spend a ton of money to build a building and move the fences in just to MAYBE get some sort of advantage over LSU?

Please tell me you are joking.

They have to shrink the field so Pavia can switch to baseball.

So Frank Thomas has needed Neugenix since college, but those short fences masked his issues.

Should “HAVE” not should have.
Also, “should not have”

Also, why would moving the fence give them an advantage over LSU exactly?

Unless you think they have more left hand hitters and therefore, a shorter right field would give them an advantage, but that’s a pretty minuscule advantage?
Idk how else a shorter right field is an advantage for them.
