If this rendering is accurate, I would say no.

everywhere, seriously though probably on the concrete bleachers on the new press box and above the lower level on the east side. and to add on to the paint, i think it will be painted....just gray

The only viable place looks to be the large surface area above the first section of new seating.  Maybe below the very top media area as well.   :dunno:

I haven't seen a discussion of whether the ribbon board levels would be even on both sides of the stadium...  :peek:

I always thought they could put a ribbon board across the ring of honor.  There's plenty of room in WSC to honor Sean.

Not putting limestone or some kind of paint on the concrete outcroppings for stands is about the most K-Stateo thing possible. JFC.

Concrete outcroppings would certainly look better as limestone outcroppings.  :grin:

I've been thinking.. I really hope we make another big BSFS expansion announcement over the next 6 months - year to keep our dicks hard NEXT summer (hell, would take a TointonFS expansion announcement). I honestly forgot what summers are like without elite ass upgrades going on with webcams and stuff, and don't want to go a summer without them for a long long time.

Not sure if an official statement will be made but it's kind of publicly known they are doing video boards and ribbons after football season.  I'm sure at the same time they will also do Toiton in order to get a better deal. 

But this may not be "big BSFS expansion announcement" you are looking for.

Obviously, the only "big" stuff we're gonna see in the next few years is the stuff from Phase III and Phase IV.  I don't see the south seating expansion (phase V) or Vanier redo (phase VI) happening for 5-10 years.  There's some pretty exciting stuff in Phase III and IV, though.

Strength and Conditioning Center
Varsity Club and Seating Area (NW corner of bowl)
Recruiting Lounge
Video and Ribbon Board Additions
South Stadium Fan Amenities
Limestone Field Wall
Field Perimeter Surface Upgrades
Paviliion Entertainment Area (NE corner of bowl)

If Currie sticks to the revenue-generating model, I can see the Varsity Club, South Stadium Fan Amenities, and Pavilion Entertainment Areas getting fast-tracked.  who knows.

Is Currie's facility expansion awesomeness enough to counter-act his crushing our basketball program? At times like this, I say yes.

I hope so, it's big but outdated. To eliminate the Vanier problem I think they shoul put a massive one south side and smaller ones in the sw and se corners

I hope we put a sweet new center hung into the fOOD.  It will almost make me want to go there for a game again, even if just for one time.

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

we really don't need more empty seats at the games.  expansion is unnecessary at this point in time.

Wasn't the stadium at capacity for 6 of the 7 games last year?  And aren't we only a handful of tickets away from being completely sold out for all 8 games this year?  What empty seats are you referring to?
