    I sure as hell hope that B&W rendering is just a template for something else. That grandstand is scaled back significantly, and other details are either, missing or changed. Otherwise, we're about to build the 2nd or 3rd best ballpark in the SEC.

    Does anyone know the difference in seating capacity between the initial and current plans?

    $55M seems like a lot for what we're getting, but what do I know ... I've only been to one game in the stadium.
    Looks like the LFL in right field is doubled in size (a 2nd row all the way across). That's a good thing and will increase overall capacity. Even without the extra sections at the end of the grandstand (replaced with grass berms), the B&W rendering should have a bigger crowd capacity than the color rendering.

    If we need to raise more money, we could sell the aluminum bleachers to tsun so they could double-deck their north endzone.**

    The grassy spot in foul territory just past 1st base. It's an open bullpen like a lot of stadiums.

    I think it's gonna be the original plan, minus the lofts for now.

    its not the origianl plan. seats were taken out because of demand and other things were removed due to costs. i still expect a great stadium but it is not what they originally put out. which is normal

    This is a typical Cluster 17! State has priced themselves out of our regular fan base... When are these people going to realize that we are not the Bama's, LSU's, SC's ect. Horrible marketing on a Grand scale of something that never could happen. The Bulldog Club is a damn joke. Those idiots couldn't get out of a wet paper bag.... and they sure as HELL don't get out and go ask for money.... except for the RoadDog Tour... one week out of 52.... They need to clean house and get some folks that understand the money aint in Starkville... it's in the Southeast and these people want to be catered to.... got to go and get ONE on ONE with these people... basic selling principle... The Male Cheerleader left the athletic department in shambles.... Way to many people on salaried positions that don't do jack $h!T.....

    He 17'ed us in so many ways.... Cohen has his work cut out for him... He needs help.... just don't know if he has the sack to make much needed changes...
