BSFS Expansion Thread

[GoodForAnother]

Just put the practice field on top of the new Vanier.

score boards going there, thats the hardest part ive looked at stadiums all morning and with knowing the size its hard as crap to try to shop it into the stadium without it looking like "dog crap"

I'll take a rendering scrawled on your living room wall in crayon at this point

[SleepFighter]

lol @ Snyder okaying an east-west practice field.

[Benja]

as long as they maximize the real estate im good either way, when vanier gets imploded it will open up a crap ton of possibilities.

move vanier closer to the field and have the wedges of seating in the corners and build something similar to this

That looks rough ridin' terrible.

[Benja]

i like the idea but we would obviously be expanding and im not sure we want to do that

We don't want to expand. And that endzone looks kinda shitty too.

[MakeItRain]

Team same amount of seats the NEZ currently has and add enough to get rid of bleachers in the SE and SW. Also team go eff yourself if you don't agree.

I've sat in both and those metal bleachers are better seats than the NEZ. Not advocating for keeping the metal bleachers, just saying the seats are significantly better.

[Benja]

It's not going to look anything like the the AZ EZ, and I wouldn't want that anyway. Very blah.

 

Oh. Just saw this. Good.

But try not to make it look like dog crap.

why have an outdoor practice facility with the new vanier. pretty sure there would be room for a new indoor facility

RE: Indoor/Outdoor practice facility...

OSU has one 92,000 square foot indoor practice facility, 2 artificial turf fields, and 2 natural grass fields across the street from BPS.  Since the Ag department won't give us that land, and I obviously don't think we need all of that, I think we could do a 360x290 (104k sq. ft.) indoor facility just south of the East Side, and we can fit a full size 400x200 field just south of the new Vanier.

Here's what I think we can do.  Blue is indoor facility, green is practice field, purple is New Vanier, Red is seating.

Eventually, the Indoor practice facility hooks into the East Side with a limestone exterior.

Seems like everybody is assuming these ITK guys are, actually, ITK.  Surprisingly, those guys who we know are ITK are not posting in this thread. 

FWIW.

[puniraptor]

are you open to having a rooftop party deck on the practice facility?

[Belvis Noland]

ps, whoever said they want us to have a similar facility to Mississippi State should be drawn and quartered.

What would we think about So. Miss's endzone with a great big videoboard up top?



Maybe WVU with a great big videoboard up top?

[SkinnyBenny]

Guys. Try to picture this. Picture a BSFS with only three of the four corners filled in and one standalone corner (NE) open. Protip: garbage. Can you imagine how dogshitty that corner would look? With that awkward-ass section of the East side bleachers that extend north of the back of the end zone? LMAO no. A NE corner under those circumstances would look absolutely terrible. Connect the goddamn stands all the way around, even if only for 10 rows up. And make it the grade the same as the rest of the stadium this time, please? Good Lord. And learn your lesson from the last End Zone Fun Zone design disaster and make it rough ridin' symmetrical. Or at least as symmetrical as you can. The rest of the stadium is nothing but sections comprised of straight lines, and you try to throw all these modernized curvy line pizza slice sections? LMAO. Take a bath.


Failing that, WOULD TAKE Southern Miss. Absolutely better than Mississippi State.

pretty sure the long term plan for the NE corner is a party plaza type thing.

that would be neat.  wouldn't that be neat SB?  I don't think it would just be "open."

Wow, looks like there are a LOT of shitty seats in WVU's stadium. Like, the majority. Almost like they set out to situate as many people as far away from the field as possible.

Yeah I was lolling at that weird end zone with some WVU fans in the parking lot in Morgantown last year and they absolutely hate it. Even have a name for it. The Gulf.

[cDubya]

Those Milan Puskar Stadium pics... 

Also, the season tickets my father has had for over 25 years are in the endzone. Those seats are great. I'll expect the typical EMAW response on this one, but in all seriousness, its a wonderful experience.

SB, I was drawing some boxes in Google Earth.  The indoor facility would connect with the East stands once they encased them in Limestone.  Also, the purple box is just area for them to put something.  I have no idea how they'd do it.  My assumption would be that the entire North end of the stadium would be closed.

I'm not an artist, bro.

Also, my main point is that we need to move the Indoor practice facility closer to the football offices/S&C/locker rooms.  It's a joke that the damn thing his halfway down College.

That would be perfect IMO. Prolly not add seats but round out the bowl for looks. Well done So. Miss.

[puniraptor]

they should build a giant swimming pool and water park inside the old indoor practice building
