Going to assume
That the home side will be the West side again, at Nippert next year.
The one renovation video shows a red team on the west side and a blue team on the
east side. Thoughts?

Typically the home side is on the same side as the press box, right? I think Butch switched sides because he was worried about coaches picking up on play calls and what not because he's a neurotic idiot.

RE: Going to assume
I haven't heard anything about the sidelines changing. I assume they will stay the same. I think the home team should always be opposite the press box, gets maximum TV coverage. Also the way the gameday locker rooms are configured it avoids a criss-cross as teams go to the locker room.

No. BK switched sides. Said it was to keep the teams from crossing paths when they went to and from the locker rooms.

It was moved under BK....I think. and the main reason was some WVU fans invaded the upper deck and all of that Blue looked bad on TV. I don't think this is an issue anymore.

The change was actually made during the Brian Kelly era. Between years 1 and 2.

I agree with you Tommy. I hope they keep it they way it is now.

They are also out of the sun, so QB's did not have to squint to read plays from the sidelines.

IIRC another reason BK cited, is that the cameras had no place to set on the east side, so they were set up on the west side in/on the press box. The only sideline shots available were of the opposing bench/sideline. He needed his face time!

RE: Going to assume
Actually the Bearcats moved to the other side with Brian Kelly because of TV exposure. The cameras are on press box side and would be showing visitor bench more. I hope it moves back since I have tickets on press box side.
