Funny. Not sure how many Cyclone "fans" ever went to see the team throughout our history. From what I always heard, it was the tailgating, the game day atmosphere, etc., etc. Rarely, if ever, did I ever hear Cyclone fans say they went to the games because we had an awesome team.
JTS construction webcam?

Finally found it, deep in the thread from when the plans for the current project were released in Spring of 2014. Some great highlights also. As someone else said the above pictures weren't from 2000, I think they were part of Pollard's original plans. Can't believe how much better the current south endzone will be than this.

It's the lighting. They are still red. It happens every day.
QUOTE=isuno1fan;4610741]Did they remove the all red bleachers? Just took this shot from the webcam and it sure looks like it unless lighting is playing a trick.

Both renderings suck. I'm glad we got what we have now even if it is way later than anticipated. I can't even begin to imagine how amazing it will look at kickoff against UNI.
I'm sure it's all part of the plan to finish after the heavy lifting is done. There won't be a sound system in the SEZ.
Alex Halsted has this on Twitter. This view truly shows Jack Trice finally becoming a Big 12 football stadium.
Wow. Absolutely wow! That is an awesome shot. Can't wait to get one with it full of fans during a game!
Both the 2000 and 2006 proposals look okay from the inside, but look awful from the outside. Take away the banners from the 2006 proposal and you can hardly see the difference because all the real changes are on lower bowl level.

Damn. That's one sexy looking stadium now. I may have to finally try and make it back for a game.

Now just turn those intramural fields into some more parking lots, with some pedestrian bridges over Elwood, and you've probably got the best tailgating scene in the entire country.
Our set up for tailgating is 100x better than what they have over in IC. There is literally no parking at all around Kinnick.
With UNI and Iowa as the first two games, they'll have plenty of chances right away. Hopefully they can get some aerial shots, it will look amazing
Just back from a quick trip to Ames and drove in off Highway 30 onto University Avenue. As you drive close to the brick gateway the new "Iowa State University" signage on the back of the south scoreboard just pops out at you. This really does make a grand impression as a front door to the university. I can't wait to see it after the entrance plaza is constructed in future phases.
