Well, when I win the big lottery, we'll get what we want in our stadium!

Well, with all the change on campus in the past 20 years, all the money (debt) being thrown around, and with the current trajectory of our football program I would have said pre-pandemic that it would not be too absurd to think we might have a new off campus stadium 20 years from now. Not that I am in favor of such a move.

the east stands need to be replaced though. it's a bit high schoolish, tbh. that's really all i care about first. I'm just tired of us piecing this together with what seems like no real plan
Unfortunately from a financial standpoint we are forced to piece things together as the money becomes available.
i get that, but none of it really matches or plays well with the other.

How much of the color differences could be due to the different mediums where color is applied? Metal vs field turf fiber vs vinyl and then as was mentioned earlier the surrounding colors also playing a part at least in the brain.

If one put a colorimeter on the signs and fields would the values be closer than our eyes perceive them?

Science experiment. Sounds like the perfect excuse to go to Boone.

If the same frequency is coming off the different surfaces I think the brain may still different colors or hues, kinda like the same note from different musical instruments sound different-timbre. I think that is more neuroscience than physics. It would make for an interesting bit of research that I am sure has been done by someone somewhere for some reason that has been published in some science magazine. Yes a good reason to visit KBS.

You’re just talking to an English teacher. All I know is that the wall is grammatically correct.

I don't disagree, but when you have to do things in stages over the years ideas and renderings get changed. What we see today was not what Charlie Cobb had planned years ago. KBS today looks just like what it is.... pieced together.

Agree, she’s a beauty. Just realized there’s 4 pictures from different angles when you open the link in Instagram. Well done Nelson aerials.

In one of the other "NelsonAerials" photos looking straight on at the new North Endzone project it is obvious that the building does not align centered on the playing surface. Is that in preparation for future remodeling of the home side seating and moving it closer to the field? Just wondering. Still the most beautiful venue for college football in the state!!!

I figure we still need to enter the stadium and need a walkway to get to the west side stands. I think the NEZ stands/seats are in alignment with the field and the building slightly asymmetrical to accommodate a walkway.
