Okay I actually thought there was a secret stadium meeting in LA or something.

There's not much from Populous that looks like college football to me. Just a bunch of NFL looking stadiums and a couple remodels on existing stadiums, like Kyle Field.

We need something like Duke:

Not whatever this monstrosity is (designed by Populous):

I am also nostalgic for these kinds of things but I imagine a lot of our people will want new fangled thingies.

More examples of Populous designs. none of these scream college football to me. to be fair, i much preferred their soccer stadium designs to their NFL ones.

I'll be happy with anything, but a big rectangle box thing is hopefully not the one we are going with.

I want something like McLane Stadium at Baylor.  I believe Populous designed it.  Look it up.  I drive past it in Waco all the time and it is awesome looking.  Seats 45K.  Has shade overhangs.

I believe this is something like we would consider, although on a slightly smaller scale.

I agree. I'm just saying that based on Populous' track record, the design is probably going to suck as far as creating a college football atmosphere. So, just be ready for that lol.

If they gave us anything like McLane, we would be lucky.

If there is not chain link fence, we are beating the competition.

    With the climate going on in NCAA athletics, you’re either moving forward at a hard pace or you’re not. I think what intrigued me the most is they’re very determined to become a big player nationally.
