... with elevations from all around?

Best I can find is this from Twitter:

It has overheads from the suite and concourse levels. Schematics.

Would love to see a picture, like what was shown for Davis Wade. Does it exist?

That place needs upgrades like Bezos needs a loan.

While we are lightyears above every other stadium, A&M's new stadium will be a definite contender.

No need to just sit back and relax now and not continue to have the best college stadium out there.

That's a dumb attitude and how you get passed by.
It's needed updates since the first season.

Thanks for the links to Twitter. One thing I just noticed is the coaches offfices are moving to lf line. With the new suites, offices and new lofts that closes the lf line and makes almost a solid structure to CF.
Wonder what the current office building will be made into that poll built. I guess he can expand a little now lol

The upgraded seats for students are very much needed. But trading berms for bleachers will reduce capacity a little.

Love the additions to the batter eye.
And a restaurant at the dude would be a great addition.

This MIGHT get started by 2030. The House Settlement is going to alter a lot of plans. I mean it is great to have a plan but we are still trying to secure the funding for the IPF right now. Then we move on to DWS AND THEN we might get around to DNF. These plans are not something that will be done anytime soon. I have a feeling most of it will be scraped in 5 years anyways.

It feels like the house thing is a convenient excuse for MSU to drag their feet with football yet again.

We need the facilities regardless of what the government decides. Build the damn facilities MSU. Because once that settlement happens then it will be "well we need to wait and see what happens with whatever the flavor of the month is." In the meantime MSU falls further and further behind while it's trying to save a buck.

I get your point. But this isn't the government where if you can't pay for it you sign an iou.

With what money would you propose building these facilities with? I am being serious. Like our athletic budget is about to get 20-25 million lighter every year and everything is budgeted for years in advance. So we have to privately come up with a lot of that money. Heck, we are still trying to raise money for the IPF.

That's on Selmon to raise it. I think he is good at that honestly if you look at the donations in the millions we have gotten recently.

Also- when was the last time we asked the state of Mississippi for funds to help out with a sports facility? I just saw where Tate Reeves nephew is walking on for us so we do have some connections in government.

Great post!

The temporary bleachers are much needed. I'm worried that we're going to lose fans long term because of you live out of town with a family of four and to go to a big MSU baseball game you either have to sit on grass, stand, or pay an arm and a leg for tickets.

I think the plan is to keep the berm in right field because there are a group of fans that really like them that sit there.

The hump was the last one. Not about to start happening any time soon. And do you realize the amount of money your talking about him raising. ???

The Hump. And we had to go back and asked for a reissuance on the bond because of COVID. We have to ask the state EVERY time.

Also, the donations we've gotten, while needed, are not going towards this and are a drop in the bucket. We're talking needing to raise 150-200 million privately for just football. I mean I don't think some of y'all realize that we have to tap the same donors every time. Hell Adkerson ended up having to give 9 million total on The Hump. They had to go back to him two additional times after he gave the initial 3 mil.

Again, we still have not raised all the money needed privately to fully fund the IPF, which we need state funds to fund part of it. And that is coming before any of this other stuff.

Like I said, if any of this stuff is started prior to 2028-2029 year, I will be very surprised.
