Honestly, in a few years we could be saying some of the same things about Mac. I would think being in Florida for a few years and having Chico as the offensive coordinator would solve any "too conservative" issues.

If Joe Don Baker is the theme then go with The Natural.

How about movie night at the new stadium? How about the Eagle head statue going into the stadium for the players to touch on the way onto the field? How about Tony Mitchell being on the U19 National Team?

They're not. I think once we watch a game there we'll all see that it's as close as possible without being silly like Oklahoma State's field.

It would be great if it was permanent. I'm thinking it's not. I may just be the way the fibers are pushed. Perhaps they are dressing it up for some pictures later today.

If it's bronze then being outside will slowly turn it green. It'll be more of a blue-green but still ...

Miniature wind turbine ... imagine the carnage from the severed limbs.

Are you sure about this? Just think ... you're running low on meats ... and plop! Another bird on the grill. In fact, during the fall when birds are migrating you might not need to bring any meat with you.

Big batteries cost big bucks and require lots of maintanence. We've come a long ways in battery technology in the last couple of decades but it still has a long ways to go. There are some technological hurdles, that when finally crossed, will usher in a wave of technology that changes our lives. One big one is greatly reducing the cost of moving people and equipment from the Earth's surface into space. A second one is producing huge amounts of power from a very small device. One example is to have a car engine that can fit in your palm. Another example is that we could build a plasma light saber but you would need a nuclear power plant strapped to your back. Once we're able to produce large amounts of energy in a small device we will change how people live their lives. Finally, the ability to store large amounts of energy in a small device, for a long period of time, will also change our world. I now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.

Awesome!

I've been wondering about that myself.

Also, it appears we're getting Mean Green in the near endzone and North Texas in the far endzone.

The Eagle ... (or at least the eagle template they're using to cut out space for the center field logo) ... is at mid field!

I can't see that happening but if it did ... I'd rather not think about it.

They'll get hit hard just like Auburn ... oh, wait. Nevermind.

So ... what do you think?

That's too close in my opinion. You're begging for a confrontation between fans and players.

They would have to place the track around the entire stadium instead of just the plaing field.

It that black border staying around the playing field? If it's is I wonder if it's the same material but just a different color. Or is it a different material made to take more wear and tear? Or perhaps it's something that's only temporary for the installation? Anyone know?

Hmm ... skew is the word. We'll know for sure when they finish laying the turf. From the webcam it does look like the visitor side is deeper but your photos make them look about the same.

Ah ... that's what I was thinking.

Turf is going in very fast. They have the entire playing field and the the home sideline laid. All that's left is laying down the visitor side and then connecting them all together.

You're taking a very narrow view of things. The new stadium doesn't get passed if the athletic department isn't involved. You also leave out the entire Eagle Point complex ... the new women's facilities, new tennis facility, etc. Don't forget that when Rick got here the floor of the Super Pit hadn't been replaced in a very long time. I wasn't around in '77 but I've heard horror stories about how bad the athletic department was.

Awesom ... what a minute! There's no mid-field logo! THEY PROMISED US A MID-FIELD LOGO!!! /end overreaction

Great find! What could have been ...
