you frickers bitch about everything .....do y'all remember the shape the stadium was in just 15 years ago.while I might not agree with some of the designs I am proud of the direction the campus and the facilities,the place looks amazing compared to a short time ago.


There is absolutely no defense for a pipe to be sticking out of the stadium.

Also, while LSU may have made improvements to campus, it is absolutely pathetic that Middleton is still being used as the main library. It doesn't even stay open 24 hours

I sure wish Scotty Moran would pony up the money to get his name slapped on a sign above the restrooms in the North End Zone.

I don't understand why the stucco on all of the west side improvements is a different color (tan) than the rest of the stadium (gray). I know this is trivial but It is just frustrating to know how much money is spent to end up with a mismatched pieced together stadium.

West upper deck is ugly. No getting around it....the contemporary design doesn't even attempt to compliment the rest of the stadium or the rest of campus.

I don't have a problem with the doner's name being on a signs on the Plaza.

That area will look much better with the improvements made to the windows, north plaza, and tiger cage. With the kind of weather Louisiana is getting, they probably won't be done in time.

Through a generous donation from the Moran family of north Louisiana, the Tiger Athletic Foundation has begun installing Sportexe artificial turf on one field at the Charles McClendon Football Practice Facility. Preparation work on the field began in mid February by Mid-America Golf and contractors began laying down the turf on Monday, May 25. Work is scheduled to be completed on or around June 5 for the beginning of football camp season.

This may have already been mentioned, but it looks like they're also painting parts of the concrete of the upper deck itself. Looked like a dark grey color.

Has anyone considered that the sign could be the wife's finishing touch. They do thing like that. Scotty Moran may not even know about the size or where it's placed. Rich wives usally have bigger egos than the men. Just take the money and be happy.

LSU must have missed the memo on the Penn State Disaster. No one should be bigger than the school and its teams. facilities or legacy.

I learned about it today, I don't think it's gonna be as bad as I first thought. That beam thing will be back where the elevator shafts are.

And wait til you see what they're gonna do at the top of the stadium.

i think they should make the NEZ scoreboard bigger to compensate for the stadium basically being a horseshoe once this expansion is finished..and bc of all the pain we had to endure looking at the twenty foot(on each side of the screen)coke and mcdonalds ads
