SEZ/Bramlage concourse renovations are next.

I don't think this is accurate. Most likely to happen next is East side club/suites renovation. Bramlage concourse is being discussed, but long ways from final plans.

Would this include adding/renovating the outside facade of the East side There use to be some "concepts" that a fan drew up that I thought were awesome. They more or less enclosed the concourse of the east side with some bad ass limestone walls and some huge arch windows to match the rest of the stadium.

I've been looking for a true east facade improvement for a long time. Went there yesterday while in Manhattan. That side just looks unfinished and always has imo.

Was in Manhattan yesterday and went by to check out the stadium. Despite my earlier comment about losing interest in the current project, I really liked what I saw. From Bramlage looking back north, finishing the bowl really makes the stadium a lot more intimate. Should be REALLY nice when they finally do the limestone wall.

It's not a primary need for sure, but ESC stuff should have plenty of other things needed beyond some limestone to help that side out. That being said, I wish our BB team didn't suck cause comboing SEZ and Bramlage concourse update would be the best next thing to do.

A few month ago I was in Fayetteville, AR and I noticed that UA football practice fields were elevated with parking underneath.   

The East Side should include a new indoor facility and elevated practice fields, would cost a ton, but would be cool.

Removing a large revenue-generating item (parking lot) for two non-revenue producing items that already exist in good form is not something you will see anytime soon.

Fields and indoor facility built on the second level, parking underneath, done right, it could add even more parking spots.

Do a switcheroo with the practice facility and revenue-generating parking lot.  problem solved.

people that park underneath practice fields can bring their booze and tents up on the practice field for tailgating

That does sound pretty cool.

What if we built the thing over Kimball, similar to bartle hall?

Somebody nominated this facility for an award (don't have the link).  What a joke our nation has become. Bunch of asymmetrical tibesaurus looking mother fuckers.
