It was a joke. I honestly have no idea what looks like crap about the field or what it's supposed to look like. Seemed like a regular field to me, but i was at the game.

I'm thinking its a product thing. It also seems like the new FieldTurf fields are not having the same issues.

Our white has a lot of rubber infill showing so it looks dull.

Warm up the mismatched turf debates

Maybe some Royals synergy would be helpful.

It's too much pellets, makes it look more worn. The green looks fine, but the midfield powercat is pretty bad

I sit eleven rows up so I have no idea how the field looks. I just figured dax was daxing. We should double row some winter wheat to play on next season.

It looks worse in person, imho

Doesn't sound like a big deal then.

Snyd's should be using this as leverage for indoor/outdoor practice facility across the street, imho

star seed 7 · « **Reply #34 on:** October 05, 2014, 04:39:53 PM »

Yeah, it's not a big deal at all. It's like sb melting down about the metal bleachers in the south corners

It looked adequate on the 55-inch TV that's for sale in the "Trim's Stuff" thread, Dax. Just saying.

I'll give you $100 for the TV if @rdrils delivers it

Unfortunately, it wouldn't fit in the hotel's airport shuttle.

When those things are returned to Baker Field where they belong you will see how our stadium goes from homely nerd girl to stunning prom queen just by taking her glasses off.

next time we get turf, they need to ask OKST where they got theirs. It looked fantastic.

Dax is always looking out for player safety, I really respect that about him.

MixBerryCrunch · « **Reply #41 on:** October 05, 2014, 08:17:57 PM »

It looked a little with out but probably not bad enough to start a thread about.

Very green. Very sharp. Very green and sharp.

It does look like crap. But I've thought that since they installed it.

I'm afraid plant lights would be too hot for the safety of our players.

Grow light purchases would put K-State on some kind of drug lord / master grower watch list.

thought it looked great when it was installed. started to look super shitty shortly after when the rubber pellets made the white not pop as much and was showing through the green.

Maybe someone mowed it

I care about all things great and small.

Just watched some high lights of Tech game. The high angle K-State camera (not TV). Turf looks like garbage. Matted down all over the place. Looks like what the old turf looked like after 8 years.
