I think we can all agree this thing looks like complete garbage.

Texas Christian University coach Gary Patterson has been hired as Kansas State's 34th football coach, multiple sources have confirmed to GoPowercat.com.  Patterson replaces Ron Prince, who was fired Wednesday. - Tim Fitzgerald   Nov, 7, 2008

Watching them put up stands is so gratifying. Can you imagine how much fun it would be to watch a whole stadium go up? God. KU fans are gonna be so lucky come 2016 or so when Beaty gets this thing turned around.

It needs a "Coming 2010" banner to really top it off.

Probably luked, but what were the 2 story rectangular structures on the east and west side of Vanier going to be?  Any idea why they were scrapped?

I think one was a library, and the other was classrooms for tutoring. I think we just spent more money on the weight room instead. Makes sense.

Would be a pretty solid goof, benja. You're right about that.

scaled to reflect the uncertainty of economic conditions caused by low meat goat and corn sorghum prices.

also, needed somewhere to park our semis. 



you know what would be rough ridin' awesome is if we walled off the south endzone, that would make like a complete bowl, then maybe add a roof, omg you guys, could you imagine, it would be like 10x the decibels  :love:

History awaits.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Question for all of our very high construction/building IQ folks:

Why are the vertical beams that are going up on the top part of the western half of the building what seem to be of random/differing heights?

Seems odd to folks like me who know nothing of this process...

The project manager probably doesn't know how to read blueprints.   :dunno:

There is currently a drone flying around (I swear I saw one on the webcams).  Probably making an elite video to brag about all the money we have.

Ok, then...  Why are the COLUMNS not all the same height?  I'm afraid this thing is all messed up.  :runaway: :runaway: :runaway:
