This is the rendering I came up with a while back. I submitted it to JC, he said "we'll consider it".  :crossfingers:

Lot a concern in Tardville as to how K-State will pay for the West Side project if in fact it even happens.   

Just the increase in revenue from the Fox TV package alone would take care of a significant portion of the debt service IF they were to finance the whole thing with bonds, which from what I hear is not the case.

Translation:  Our athletic director is using the perfect formula of financing non revenue producing facilities projects with private funds, and revenue producing facilities projects with a combination of private funds/revenue/bonds.   Meanwhile Lew Perkins piled up millions in debt on facilities that don't produce any actual revenue, and that's why their Gridiron Club "Coming Fall 2010" is still just a drawing on the wall . . . I still wonder if the workers who took down the banners in the middle of the night were paid OT.

It's invisible . . . only gridiron club members at KU can get the special de-cloaking code.

I hear it's awesome though.

Weren't we rumored to be getting rid of the asphalt surrounding the field?  Is that still happening?

Just the endzones.  Asphalt on the sideline side will remain.

Nothing says modern day college football like a track around the field.

Maybe someday ku will get that standalone track facility built . . . what is it now? 5-6 years since that thing first went up on the drawing board?

Ku is damn lucky they are too poor to build that ugly thing.  They don't have the fans to fill it.

Went up and took some pictures today. Most of them came out with the purple looking black because of my crapty camera and it was raining at the time so I boosted up the exposure and the color so it would look closer to how it looked in real life.

Here's a link to the slideshow:

Feel free to post them in here or wherever.

Yeah, as K-STATEO as it is, we make somewhere around a billion dollars on it each year. No way we get rid of it.
