Re: Turf Replacement Pics
I like the fact that the Sunbelt logos are missing. Makes it easier to go to the AAC.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
Finally that eyesore of a track will be gone! Love the new layout. Especially bringing in Miller hill and turning it into what looks like tiered seating?

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
First, I’m a proud member of Gen-X, and I’m open to changes (except ‘Neers). I like many new things and some old ones, as well. For instance, I like the new end zones, but would love to have the Yosef head in the “App State” end zone. Like the rest of Gen-X, I’m a paradox.NashvilleNeer wrote: ↑Mon Jun 15, 2020 8:42 pmI'm not suggesting having 'Neers in the endzone, ya boomer, but i don't think having a multicolored and one word App State in the endzone looks good either. Keep it simple with App State in yellow, otherwise it looks very minor league to me. whatever, i'll live, but i'm not going to just jump up and down for everything we do just because. Ask an outsider and i'm sure they'll agree.

“Like the rest of Gen-X, I’m a paradox”.
Like the rest of us boomers, I’m a parrot head.
Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder
I'm an over-forty victim of fate
Arriving too late, arriving too late
I've done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass
I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last, never meant to last
And I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
But I got to stop wishin', got to go fishin'
Down to rock bottom again
Just a few friends, just a few friends
Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
Proud member of the Gen X crew right here! I like the new field turf design a lot. I too am a fan of the Yosef logo, but you can never go wrong with the timeless block A. I totally get the move to AppState. Definitely will make it easier for talking heads the like Herbstret not to trip on their tongue when talking about our top 25 status.
P.S. I love the Boomers. Great generation.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
I think that logo, as much as many of us old heads like it, is going to go back into the basement. Although it has never carried a negative association, I think many athletic departments are going to start phasing out old mascots such as this, if for no other reason than wokeness.jeller2315 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 15, 2020 8:19 pmI love it! I'd like the yosef logo in the "AppState" end zone, but I like it nonetheless.

Love the new field and BOTH end zones. Even like the Black A (Class of '79).

Really? Is that how they are planning on “removing” the track?

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
This year is still from the miller hill side but DG said starting in 2021, we will be moving to the new locker rooms in the end zone facility so there will be some kind of field entrance there between the field level patio.Apple@chin1 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 15, 2020 10:01 pmDo we know yet where the teams will enter the field on game day?

I’m guessing the visiting teams will still be using Quinn for locker rooms this year? The new miller hill design doesn’t show an easy way to get up there. Ouch

You know millennials are in there late 20s to late 30s now, right? If you’re thinking of teens to mid 20s they’re Gen-Z.

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
Love it. Think they did a great job on it. The only thing I might like different is if the "App" was in black, was a "state" stating gold. They would have to make the background of the end zone green in order to do that, but I would be okay with that. But I am completely fine with this as is. Clean, the fonts are good, the logo is a good size, not any extra junk or clutter on the field, nothing gimmicky (like 'neers, or some team slogan, or worst of all black and gold turf). 4.75/5

Re: Turf Replacement Pics
Nothing wrong with the visiting locker room being a little uncomfortable for the visitors to get to. I’m hoping they keep it at Quinn for the foreseeable future and figure out something else to do with the current home locker room.JPatH3292 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 16, 2020 8:09 amThis year is still from the miller hill side but DG said starting in 2021, we will be moving to the new locker rooms in the end zone facility so there will be some kind of field entrance there between the field level patio.Apple@chin1 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 15, 2020 10:01 pmDo we know yet where the teams will enter the field on game day?
