[Belvis Noland]

BTW, are we talking about native KS limestone?  i mean, i'm sure this impacts cost (and discoloration)

[ArchE_Cat]

7.5 million in limestone  . That could easily include field wall, various decorative structures (think pilasters in a fence, with wrought iron in between. New gates on the east side, etc.), and covering up a most of the exposed east side structure. Could also include new strength center, recruiting lounge, and varsity club thingy as well.

I just thought of something....

Do you think the Daktronics contract will include a new board for the one that is in the parking lot by Kimball avenue?  It's pretty bad.

Yup, that's what I'm thinking.  New limestone wall plus all this.  Gotta be it.

I don't know why K-State is spending money like this on a stadium that can "never be big time" and "will never be able to add any outdoor seating of value"??

Guys, I'll go ahead and say it.. with the setting, the pieces we have in place, and future plans.. we will have one of the best stadiums in not only the entire college football landscape, but in the whole world in a few short years.. the whole world
