Title: Jack Trice Stadium Expansion
Post by: Havs on February 09, 2010, 09:35:00 AM
I'm not sure if these photos have ever gone across the boards of Wildcat Nation, but word around Cyclone Nation is that Iowa State will begin work on the endzone project at the end of this football season. Capacity of Jack Trice Stadium will be between 62,500 and 65,000, making Jack Trice the 3rd largest stadium in the Big 12 North.

Happy for you Haverhill.  I went to the ISU/KSU game there a couple years ago and  :barf: a bit from how crumby it looked.  Much needed renovation, and I'm sure will look better than any "Gridiron Club". 

However, I do question the seating.  When I went a over 2 years ago there were probably 5-10K empty seats, and about as many KSU fans as ISU.  Do you expect to fill the 62K for most games?  :confused:

We renovated concourses (concessions, restrooms, club sections, suites on west side) over the past two off seasons. The addition of the South Endzone and opposing locker room facility on the South side will likely start in the next year or two.

The guy who founded Roundup is a ISU Donor.

Quote
John E. Franz is an organic chemist who discovered the herbicide glyphosate while working at Monsanto Company in 1970. The chemical became the active ingredient in Roundup, a broad-spectrum, post-emergence herbicide.

John Edward Franz was born on December 21, 1929 in Springfield, Illinois. By the age of ten, he knew he wanted to be a scientist. Franz received a Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry from the University of Illinois in 1951 and received his Ph.D. in organic chemistry from the University of Minnesota in 1955.

Dude isn't even an alum and you think he's going to pony up that kind of dough?  Guess he has a guilty conscience about the ass raping Monsanto (recently named the least ethical company in the world.) has been giving farmers for years.  It also seems a bit odd that a public university that does so much ag research would receive large donations from a private donor whose wealth is directly tied to an ag company's profits.   Having that guy's name connected to a university is worse than uk's donors.

If the price is right, ticket prices will probably be lowered quite a bit.

"I'm so proud to be your football coach" sells a few tickets, but I have a feeling it'll be pretty cheap to get a ticket to a football game in Ames once the endzone is bowled in, except for the Iowa and Nebraska games which are usually more expensive.

I've been to all the North stadiums and most of the South ones (not Tech, OU, or aTm).  The only stadiums worse than Jack Trice are the stadiums in Waco and Lowrents.  The facilities in both of those places are embarrassingly bad, JT Stadium has a distinct advantage in that department.

The cartoon drawing actually makes Jack Trice Stadium way nicer than it actually is (and yes, I realize the drawing includes the expansion).

When were you last at Jack Trice? The concourses were renovated between 2007-2009, and suites were added on the west side below the upper deck in 2007. There are many more restrooms and concession stands in the stadium, and many aesthetic changes to improve the overall Gameday experience at Jack Trice Stadium.

I drove by KU's Memorial Stadium yesterday, and its gotta be the most hidden stadium in all of college football. We were randomly driving through a neighborhood and just happened to go past it.

Not hearing much, unfortunately. Given my love of athletic facilities, its a huge bummer.

The Capital One Cup is awarded annually to each of the best men's and women's Division I college athletics programs in the country. Points toward the Capital One Cup are earned and tracked throughout the year based on final standings of NCAA Championships and final official coaches' polls.  Curiously, the greatest feat in the history of college athletics (i.e. 3maw) wasn't enough to even register in the top 100 men's athletic programs this past year.  The men for Kansas checked in at 63.  The women cracked the top ten at numero 8.  In fact, a quick check of the complete final standings shows that neither the KSU men nor the KSU women even made the rankings (They stopped counting after #100 or so...)

Hey Havs when is a realistic timeline for anything happening to JTS?

My guess would be 3-4 years. The stadium is going to be sold out for every game this season, but I doubt anything will happen unless it is full for a couple more seasons. Iowa State has a good number of donors, but the project needs one "big" donor to truly catapult the movement for expansion. Paul needs to win more or that donor won't come forward. I realize the general consensus of fans on this board is that overall capacity is an archaic way of measuring success, but when there is a stadium as bad acoustically as Jack Trice, it really needs that endzone bowled in with fans in the new seats.

I will agree with this unless we win 7+ games this year, then I see it happening sooner.

Any idea why you're planning to build a big upper deck of terrible seats in the endzone for the poors instead of seven decks of premium on the sideline?

I'm starting to think KU and ISU have never had a Titletown.  They don't seem to know very much about it.

Back-to-back bball titles in 2000-2001 didn't suck.

Title IX sports are cute.

Uhhh, Mens Basketball is a title IX sport? Good try.

What? Weatherwax is hilarious.   :don'tcare:

AMES, Iowa - At 23-years-old, Mel Weatherwax was an avid college football fan, so avid that watching televised games wasn’t enough.  He wanted to see the action live, so he weighed his options.  As a full-time employee with United Parcel Service (UPS), multiple trips to Iowa City were too taxing.  Instead, he chose the convenience of a short trip to Ames.  It was that year, in 1973, that Mel attended his first Iowa State football game with a friend.  And after one game, he was hooked.
 
“When I was 23 I decided it was too difficult to go to Iowa City, so a friend of mine and I decided to go to Iowa State games,” Mel said.  “I started going in 1973 and immediately felt like we had much more in common with ISU fans.”

How does ku fan know how much K-State gets paid.

K-State has a new contract with Nike and Nike doesn't allow its client schools to disclose the terms of their contracts anymore.

Plus resident ku fans don't understand the difference between contract value and cash payout.   The shoe companies value their contracts at the full amount of the equipment and the cash, and the equipment is typically valued at full MSRP.
