BSFS Expansion Thread

Re the AZ comparison, think more building, less seating. IIRC.

DO NOT WANT THIS!

Absolutely want this.  I like Oklahoma State's huge rough ridin' wall.

I want it to be glass and limestone with a 30' powercat (outline only, you gotta see out of the glass) sandblasted on the windows.

hopefully they follow the wsc formula and make the outer facade a huge castle and the inner facade super elite and modern glass and stuff

facade

What a great word.  I don't say it enough.

facade

[Mikeyis4dcats]

we can probably afford to add more suites.  didn't the WSC suites sell out in roughly 5 seconds?  those things are cash cows.

large suites actually did not all sell as of 2 weeks before season, but the assistant AD who gave us the tour I was on said they wish they had built a lot more of the loge seating boxes, so expect more of those would be my guess.

Oh yeah. From the road it I want it to go with the WSC exterior...all limestony and archy and stuff. On the inside I want it to be all glass with a huge "ghost" cat on the glass. If at all possible, it would be nice it it could somehow tie into the WSC or East upper deck, but I don't think that's gonna happen.

Where the eff are the mock ups!

It's not going to be like OSU -- that giant building is Gallagher Iba.

Would take! Hopefully it's more castlely than Arizona's

It could be like OSU though, if we wanted it to be.  Maybe not as high, but like pretty rough ridin' high.  Can we arch the wall in towards the field according to some sort of parabolic curve?  Make it as noisy as possible.

[Dugout DickStone]

What if they design it as just a huge tree and some tree houses as the offices in it as a huge "eff you" to gE?

That's what my giant 500 ft. walls of death are for.

[Cartierfor3]

I hope that it makes where our team comes out more of a tunnel and less of a ramp.

[Rage Against the McKee]

I think the new Vanier should be 10 stories tall and include student athlete housing so all of the football players have their own suite with either a jaw-dropping view of the Flint Hills or a view of LHC Bill Snyder Family Stadium, depending on what wing they are in.

Got any renderings?  I could get on board Dlew's WOD.

Can confirm.   The one "feature" tho that sounds super cool, I promised not to speak about.

This is where you PM SD about such things.

yup

[Pete]

I don't give a crap if it doesn't have a single seat.  Hell, I'd prefer it was just suites, if anything.

We need LESS seating for normal people and way more seating for big donors.

[sonofdaxjones]

Nothing yet on a very important entities capital project list, however that doesn't mean anything, items can be inserted and capital project lists amended almost any time. 

FYI-ku memorial track-field and football stadium currently not scheduled to receive any improvements until FY2017 with funding source(s) listed as: TBD
This, like other projects can be subject to change.

[mocat]

Vanier looks like garbage right now and the new one will look like not garbage.

Source = A

I agree with you on more donor seats but I always enjoyed having NEZ Fun Zone GA seats

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

New Vanier will not connect to either side, at least that I saw. Seemed about as wide as the field.
