Any chance you could post what that looked like?

It was just shared with red scribbles. Our west side exterior looked way too modern to me personally and like what ODU has going now vs this early rendering. It probably would have taken the same shape ultimately.

Got it. Yeah, that press tower was a bit modern and didnt flow well into the bottom brick and arches area, but overalll I liked that. Especially the inside. Really, all we need is the lower bowl and the whole west side for the time being and could have done the east side expansion later. Oh well. I just hope our new suites and end zone come quickly and wraps around the corners to complete the horseshoe. If that happens and we get a very nice scoreboard over the end zone I think we will be in decent shape for a while.
