I'm no architect, but it seems to me that addition depicted is a different architectural style than the existing stadium. Looks 50's modern or bauhaus to me.

Again, I like the idea, but not the look.

I think there's still a lot to be hashed out, but preliminarily, I'm going to have to disagree. Nippert Stadium's "architectural style" is basically limited to the outdated and tired looking press box and pavilion. The rest is the architectural style of surrounding buildings, which I would argue is fairly diverse and, aside from Dieterle, pretty modern. This includes the new CRC and Lindner Center. I have confidence that whatever is built will fit into the context.
