our tunnels, guys. how are we gonna k-stateo up tarps on those?

honestly, i don't see how, and it's pretty damn disappointing.

I'm thinking K-State themed curtain of beads for the tunnel exit.

purple beads surrounding grey beads in the shape of a powercat


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

I think this was a couple hundred pages back, but the neon backlit purple powercats all over the new east side are very k-stateo. I assume there will be a similar theme on the NEZ? It's not quite clip-art, but it's not quite classy, either.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Also looks they are installing a below grade drainage tube deal and removing the metal grates?

Will there be a new exterior on the East Side and Bramlage to match the North and West sides?

I'm actually very impressed with how the ISU reno is looking, it's massive. Now about that west side...

Wonder how many Olympic sized swimming pools of water that thing can hold now when it floods again?

I've heard it's around 37.

Gotta bowl in the north end too for it to hold water. Patience boys, patience.
might I advise a French drain?

Is this new addition really that much of an upgrade? These pictures look like virtually the same number of seats, but steeper.  Also, the building is bigger than old Vanier, but with more athletic dept shoved into it, does football really have that much more space?

132,000 sqft compared to 64,000 sqft
Locker room doubles in sqft
weight room more than doubles in sqft
academic center doubles in sqft
equipment room doubles in sqft


So yea...a lot more space for everybody.

Aside from doubling the sqft, the connected concourse and filled corners are pretty huge improvement, IMO.  aesthetically and functionally.
