RE: NEW stadium construction
Just filled out and submitted. I pulled no punches, the stadium (for me) was even more disappointing than the on-field product.

I agree...for 68M someone got really rich. No bathrooms on the third level, cheap aluminum stairs, costs way out of line for concessions, elevators undersized, modular look, and most of all we didn't even get a NEZ redo.

NEW stadium construction
Also mention the bad production for tv. Lack of replays on the video board.

The video feed in the stadium is crappy too, noticed the digital blocks a few times yesterday.

Same. I mentioned that if we have our goals set on the AAC then our production is nowhere near that level as it sits right now.

RE: NEW stadium construction
Does anyone know if/when we are getting the big banners that will drape parts of the stadium?

All I know is I was told they were in and ready to be put up for the last game last season. I posted that here on the message board at that time. Then they were not up for the last game so I asked if I was misinformed. I was told they were in but it was decided it was somewhat of a waste to put them up for one game and then have them take a beating from the the weather for a year. So they were waiting to put them up for this season. My hunch is this season is not happening (at least this Fall) so again they will not put them up until (and if) we actually play this (2020-2021) academic year. That said, what I was told last season may have not been true then, in which case it would still not be true but it is the best info I have.

RE: NEW stadium construction
I can verify this. I was told the exact same thing by a young lady (name I don't recall) who identified herself as the person directly responsible for the banners.

Last I heard was they'll go up right before the season starts. Sooo Aug 2021 probably. No point in putting them up now only to get weathered.

Shame we don’t have money. Now would be a great time to get the North Endzone done since we aren’t using the stadium.
