FB Facility Update

[cysocool]

Just to show what the tunnel could possibly look like...I put together a sketchup model of the scoreboard/tunnel.

**This is not meant to represent what the athletics department actually has designed or what will actually be built. It is just my personal take on what has been rumored.**

I do think the tunnel could look pretty cool though.

I would be happy if it turned out just like this. Good work...

Really like the angle from the east upper deck, facing the northwest.

Looks like Dan Mullen's office has a nice view and location. We need to do something like this for Rhoads!!

That looks great! I would be thrilled if that is actually what happens. Thanks for mocking up.

I was expecting it to be bigger but I'm guessing it's everything CPR wants. 23 million though...whew.

I don't see a tunnel on that map.

I don't see a tunnel on that map.

It is discussed in the project details.

Does it say what kind of metal is going to be used?

 

[Frak]

It was nice to know you, 85W.

Does it say what kind of metal is going to be used?

The more important question is will it hold up to the wind?

Rusty left overs from a scrapyard to keep costs low

They should probably get on that.

For you engineers and architects out there, can you explain Approved Building Prgram vs Schematic Design? Which one actually gets built?

With this new FB facility, maybe they should tear down the Jacobson Building, bowl in the North endzone and move the new scoreboard to the South endzone.

This is great to see.

Someone call and tell the construction workers to stop what they are doing and prep the South Endzone for the new scoreboard...save some time and money :twitcy:

That kind of money should get us one righteous facility. Not T Boone facility righteous, but pretty righteous. My guess is Top 5 in the conference.
