Do you guys like this stadium concept that was originally debuted in 2008 or the new stadium design we are currently building, and if possible could someone find the video of the 2005 design in the original video?

Personally I like the second design that came out in 2008, I really don't like the endzone wings section, instead they should just make more seats on the home/away side, who is going to want to sit in the top corner of the wing seats? and more importantly, is their going to be stairs on the outside of the wing section? If you had the far corner seat, how would you get down, a side-ways staircase leading to the tunnel? Doesn't sound very safe to me.

It doesn't really matter right now. The new design will only last a couple years since we will win 10 games this season and have a capacity crowd the majority of the time, which of course will lead to expansion of the stadium. Whatever the stadium looks like then is the one I will like the most.

But if I'm wrong, I'd have go with a hybrid of both.

Very small thing, certainly nothing to gripe about but in the first drawing I really like the bank of lights. Much lower, built from the top of the stadium and one row running horizontal. I also like the darker brick but I realize that could be my monitor setting or other factors. I'll be happy tailgating around the new stadium and watching my Mean Green in the stadium no matter what.

I like the top image, looks pretty sharp, I have never been a fan of that flipper thing in the end-zone that the second image has.

Personally I'm a fan of the most recent HKS design with. The 2008 concept looks like SMU with a miniature second deck on the home side.

This concept that is being constructed is unique, functional, and gives the stadium it's own national identity by being "different" and having wings in the end zone.

The newest design has attention grabbing flair. The older design would have been a very nice place to watch a game but I think the AD is really going for HEY LOOK AT US AND OUR CRAZY ASS NEW STADIUM!!! I think its the right way to go. The first design would have gotten a 5 minute segmant from all the local news channels and a solid meh from those without ties to the school. I think there's at least some hope that people might wanna see this one.

My thoughts exactly.

I have never been a fan of the Wing. It looks like a poor attempt to make the stadium different and interesting. Does anyone know if there will be a section of the stadium with seats rather than bleachers? Any plans to have color to the bleachers rather than plain old silver?

I think the Club level is going to have seats. I would love green bleachers, but painting bleachers every single year would probably cost alot of money.

Every kid that attends a NT game will want to sit in the so called "wing" section. this will make the end zone seats even more attractive to young families.

I like the idea of green bleachers. How about having them anodized ? Hence green with no maintance.

Well, the wing/tail/whatever you want to call it definitely distinguishes the stadium. However, that's the first thing every person I've shown the stadium drawings has commented on, and the comments have never been flattering. I just hope it looks better in person than it does in the drawings.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
