RE: Turf Day!
From all the images showing lights, looks like they'll be 4 towers per side, and the two in the middle will be behind the far concession stands so that they won't have to be moved for upper deck construction. The two on the ends will be beside the upper decks when they are added.

What will go around the field turf/sidelines? Same material?

The player and coaches boxes on each sideline will probably be the same material, but the rest will probably be real grass or some no-maintenance fill.

Wake has more money than us too, plus it looks like less space to cover. I'm all for the whole thing being MatrixTurf if its in the budget.

RE: Turf Day!
I imagine this is playing surface, then they lay the out of bounds, then remainder of turf. I'm trying to find out.

RE: Turf Day!
If you pan to the right, between the Suite Box and concessions, it looks like they're bricking the concourse.

No UNC Concrete at our stadium!

They're bricking the main "thoroughfare" (entryway) of the concourse on both sides of the stadium I think.

Yep, looks like all entrances will have bricked walkway. Looks good.

This image doesn't really help as it looks like the whole thing is concrete, but the more brick the better.
