Re: Turf Replacement Pics
I would be willing to bet it will very similar to the NO Bowl endzones (which I love). The APPSTATE branding in white and gold has become the trend in the athletics department. They also put it on the new baseball field. If they do the NO Bowl endzone with black background, I’ll be a happy camper. GO APPS!!

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
The "caligraphy Appalachian State in the endzones" turf was delegated to Coach Moore and he gave it his personal touch. On paper, it looked ugh..OK...but when it was in plain view for all eyes to see, it was pretty dreadful especially in regard to the end zones and the bright yellow sidelines that included the team bench areas. (They were soiled and stained after the first game and it was slowly, but surely, downhill from there. For the last 4-5 seasons, the bench areas have looked downright nasty.) We can rest assured that those details will not be repeated.
BTW, this is no slam against Coach Moore. He wasn't a turf design pro and really didn't know how use, age and weather would affect polyvinyl grass. I doubt he liked the "caliscript" in the end zone when he saw it for the first time from the w-i-d-e windows of his office in the Athletics Center. I suspect he was in ...

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
Maybe it’s just me, but I never thought of subway with the white and gold APPSTATE. After seeing them side by side, I still don’t think they really resemble each other, much less us copying it.
It’s all about marketing, we clearly want our athletic teams to be seen and known as App State. I like the APPSTATE lettering, and while we all love Appalachian, there’s always gonna some knuckleheads and Yankees who pronounce it wrong. You can’t screw up
App State. We are becoming a national product now, APPSTATE is effectiveand memorable.
**For the record, while I think the endzones will resemble the NO Bowl endzones (better be BLACK), I would be fine with our traditional APPALACHIAN & MOUNTAINEERS. GO APPS!!

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
I'm headed to the QC from NOVA 4th of July weekend. Considering a stop in Boone on the way down. Is this projected to be finished by then?

No, the top floor and seating area is supposed to be finished for first home game. The rest later./\PP ST/\TE GRAD 09 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 13, 2020 4:48 pmI'm headed to the QC from NOVA 4th of July weekend. Considering a stop in Boone on the way down. Is this projected to be finished by then?

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
They may be covering the track but I’m thinking they’re easing the slope down to get equipment to field level as north end may be closed with that construction.CVAPP wrote: ↑Fri Jun 12, 2020 11:58 amLooks like they are covering the track behind the Bobby Lamb end zone. That make sense since they are regrading the hill. I wonder if they plan to bury the rest of it or remove it? Seems like burying it may be less costly.
Thanks to all involved for these pics.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
We’ve been putting “APPSTATE” on apparel for more than a decade, in the bowl end zones the last two years, and this thread is literally the first time I’ve ever heard anyone compare it to Subway.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
I think the new branding is at least trying to mimic Nikes branding with a thick italic sans serif font.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
I prefer how we have it. If Sunbelt allows it, put App St. by the 25 yd lines opposite side of each Sunbelt symbol.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
I hope to god we don't go with the endzone we had for the bowl game. It looks very Sun Belt-like.. Keep it the way it's been. It looks 100x better.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
If we go with the shortened version, it doesn't need to be multicolored and the black in the endzone has to be there.appstate24 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 13, 2020 4:04 pmMaybe it’s just me, but I never thought of subway with the white and gold APPSTATE.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
The design has been released. I'm not sure how to post a tweet but it is on Twitter (and distributed elsewhere). The new AppState logo in one endzone with Mountaineers in the other. Black block A in the middle. Looks great. No yellow player boxes either.
