KU's new basketball dormitory facility

K-State would need to relocate the stadium and remove the harley track in order to make a splash.  Let's hope they can get it done with $20 mil.

yep:

Limestone Field Wall and Field Perimeter Surface Upgrades
The existing concrete field level seating wall and surface pavement has deteriorated. The installation of a hewn limestone wall at the lower bowl of the football stadium will surround the field with the heritage of the K-State campus to the stadium and tie into the façade of the new north end zone Vanier Complex.

So phase 3 is getting the football complex on par with the rest of the Big 12?  Huge news for EMAW.

eh, I don't see anything as "par". we'll still be seen as below some of the best stadiums but we will be passing others on our way towards the upper half. I'm very happy about it.

Congrats fellas. Unlike the butthurt brigade, my #1 goal in life is not to disparage and make fun of K-State when they get nice things.

but if it's number 6 then its in your upper half of your goals right?

We just finished spending $10 million dollars on renovating and expanding Vanier 5 or 6 years ago, and now we're going to tear the whole thing down and start over.

So K-State basically wasted $10 million trying to put lipstick on a pig?  Now you're going to build a new football complex more than six years after KU just built our $31 million football-only facility.  Impressive.

Glen Mason asked for something compareable to Vanier in 1995, 3 coaches and 13 years later it opened in 2008 at ku.

That's one of the primary reasons that Mason tried to bail to Georgia in 1995, and ultimately did bail to Minn. the following year.

You were nearly 2 decades behind K-State Beems.

We should flip the couch cushions and build one of these Kentucky Jr., dorms just for the hell of it.  I dunno

We have an extra 20 million in straight cash laying around now, why not?
