Does anyone have any information or renderings of this project for the '23 season?

Gillin mentioned this in a recent video interview.

It may be finished already. Work began in July.

It's a 4-foot high brick wall at the bottom of Miller Hill and will look like the other brick work in and around the stadium. The hollow rod iron fence there previously failed at multiple points after the Troy Hail Mary, leading to a dozen injuries (nothing critical), including one student being impaled through their leg. There were plastic road obstacles put in those spots through the rest of the season.

It's basically done. Are they leaving the ends open in case they decide to rush the field?
