Pretty sure it is in the works to be done over the next few years meaning 3-7 years. I have a few friends who have worked in the Athletic department in various fields and they have said it was being rumored and a few recently said that it was passed by the board. And no I don't have a link it was just said in conversation

Let's hope they don't hire the same bozos who built the new west upper deck. Was it MAPP Construction?

No idea but it took forever. I can't imagine how long it would take to build there. One thing me and my friends were talking about as cool archetectual feature would be to have the S. stadium drive still pass right there and pass underneath the stadium. It would be just one more thing to make us unique. Other wise we would loose more parking space due to having to move that street around. It would have to cut through the parking lot. Any other suggestions would happen?

Nope, Yates Construction. MAPP did the other side.

No,MAPP, did a great job on the EAST upper deck. Yates construction is who jacked up the WEST upper deck and took a year too long and big tyme bucks over budget.

BTW: they are ole miss contractors!

MAPP built the east upper. The west upper was built by Yates Construction for Mississippi.

If you don't like the new west upper deck design you need to blame it on the architects. MAPP built what was designed.
