BSFS Expansion Thread

[hatingfrancisco]

Am I the only one all  about the "significant data upgrades"?

[justTHEtip]

Thank god we are redoing that side, it looks incredibly shitty compared to the west.  Jesus.

I agree with everything Jack says. Even the Jesus part. Jesus.

Mediocre Max Urick ran the athletic department back then, he did everything on the cheap because he couldn't raise money.

Man, and to think of what we could have been doing in 2003-2006, on the heels of a BigXII championship and a strong economy.  Put it in perspective, ADJC has raise the majority of his money during the recession. 

yup, and to think that there's a decent number of posters here that don't like ADJC because of frank martin

it's mind bottling

[Shooter Jones]

our stadium is gonna be so rough ridin' awesome, guys.

Any particular rendering you've seen which you would like to share? please Please PLEASE

I haven't seen any.. I made that comment simply based off the fact that we are really rough ridin' elite, all these rumors, and the updated Master Plan.

Cats.

Does this mean more webcams?

How big will the cranes be this time?

[Benja]

I hope they bring the same two cranes back. I grew fond of them.

[Trogdor]

Willie could do his KSU on the top of it

[Belvis Noland]

I hope they bring the same two cranes back. I grew fond of them.

Yes, having Niles and Frasier back would be truly heartwarming.

Yeah, I never watched that show but I guess that's what we can call them.

[Belvis Noland]

That is/was their names through the entire WSC construction.  I can't take credit for it.   

[EMAWmeister]

It's going to be really rough ridin' awesome, guys.

[Gooch]

I need the renderings released to put in the spank bank to get me through the summer.

Yeah I know. They aren't terrible names.

T Boone Pickens stadium would look pretty cool if they finished the bowl and the concourse went all the way around.

I have been critical of John Currie both during the Frank Martin transition and after.  That being said I have to give a tremendous amount of credit to his ability to spearhead major construction projects. 

The notion that John has raised a bunch of money during a recession is a bit of a farce.  While many parts of the nation have been mired in recession that simply isn't true for the majority of this state and K-State's alumni base.  Due to oil and gas exploration and commodity prices much of the state has been experiencing a booming economy.  Add in significant television revenues that stabilized the AD finances and the it becomes tough to sell the "recession" angle.

additional limestone

 

Limestone across the top please. The LHC Bill Snyder Family Stadium letters they have across the top looks like they were bought from Home Depot for $14.50. We can do better friends.

Jesus. I actually never really thought about how shitty that looks until now.

Up until ADJC we probably all thought that looked pretty decent.  Remember being excited about the new bathrooms over there? 

I've said it before, but I'll say it again. I would rather them not put another dime into the east side for a long long time, then when the time is right/money is there, demo it and build a structure almost completely mirroring the WSC. Exact same size, exterior, tailgate terrace, bottom few levels of premium seating, etc. It obviously wouldn't have the training table, and instead of having the top few floors for press, etc, have stadium seating with a roof over the top at the same height as the WSC.

Re-doing the NEZFZ, and doing an ESC, BSFS would be one of the best college football stadiums in the history of the whole world.

Interesting. It would be hard to leave the east side looking like an erector set for another decade, but I see what you're saying.

Gallagher IBA is where Vanier is for us, and it's really tall.  I don't think I'd want it to be that tall.
