New field next year.  Outside of field, wall and East club renos nothing sexy on BOR capital projects list for awhile.  Subject to change of course.

Yup, perfect time for KU to announce plans bigger and better than everything that's been done with BSFS.

Well the twinkling rays of FY 2018 are on the horizon.   Master plan says 2022/2023.  As the sands of time tick that appears pretty close to being correct.   Unlikely any moving dirt before FY 2019.

I'd agree. I'm not sure how it will look though. I can only see it looking piecemeal.

I agree that you don't want the hodgepodge thrown together effect like Nebraska or A&M has. However, I think it would look better if you had it intentionally standing out by itself, rather than trying to integrate, or flow it into the lines of east or west side. So go ahead and put the other two video boards up in the corners, then for your second level, immediately start with seating, go up about half the height of the upper deck on the east side, and then cap it with lower priced club area, very similar to what Ole' Miss does. They've got two "upper" levels though as well as a sun shade.



In my mind what I have pictured doesn't look too bad, but I've never been much of an architect either.

I like the kinnick Stadium north end zone renovation scheduled to start after this season. Probably adds too much seating for us but I like the look.

I do too.

I also like the LSU Tiger Stadium end zone reno, would obviously be on a much smaller scale for KSU Cats Stadium, but the video boards and club levels could add some symmetry to both the WSC and north EZ. Kind of.

You guys do realize that by the time KU does upgrade then the KSU Cats will be upgrading again. Think how much KU has saved by not upgrading as often. Bunch of rubes around here.

its sad to see all of these scrub school's stadium improvements span more than one off season like the iowa NEZ is supposed to take like 2 years

lmfao

It's definitely cool, but I actually think this is super sweet as well and I may like it better. Just a personal pref.

A&M's rennos look great. Do not like the weird partial press/ loge box structure on the end of Vaught Hemingway. Roof opens up weird and your largest box shouldn't be on an endzone imo. Ole Miss would be the exact opposite of what I'd go for.

Nope, the LSU tiger eye at midfield is definitely the GOAT for midfield logos in all of football.

Yeah, they're both great but LSU gets the nod for me over ECU. We should have a close up of the face of the old Willie, with the sailor hat.

I took a stroll up to ole BSFS this afternoon. 

We're pretty blessed guys, I know the different colored turf is a talking point but I doubt it will stand out much on game days with all of the activity going on as well as the people & equipment on the sidelines.  There could always be a fake limestone wall in place (like Baylor's fake brick wall):
