Jack Trice statue to return to central campus

Jack Trice is featured prominently at the east side of the stadium. I do think that statue is ignored where it is now, but I do remember when they moved it with the thought being it was sort of out-of-the-way and forgotten about in central campus.
 
I was going to to say the same thing.
I liked it at the stadium too, but why couldn’t there be a 2nd new statue placed at the football stadium of Trice in his football uniform?
Modeled after this:

As I recall there's a big relief of Jack in his football uni and his words adjacent to him on the East concourse at the top of the steps. But a full size statue of him in the new renovation would be awesome.

He was by Carver when I was there as a student. I think it's a good thing, especially since that statue is "academic" in composition.

I DO think it's a great idea to put another one up by the stadium. They need to not lose track of it, because it's ALWAYS shown on TV during broadcasts.

Maybe they could work the "I Will" letter into it somehow, or at least a quote or two.

Ah, we are always on the North side of the stadium, I’ll have to mosey on East and check that out sometime.

Yeah, this is what I had in mind. In the new concourse area would be perfect.
 
Put it in the Library. The thing has been outside now for a number of years and could probably use a little TLC and conservation.
 
Nice to have it in Central Campus. However, there needs to be something even more prominent in the new north access to "Jack Trice Stadium."
 
I didn't see this thread. Mods please delete the one I started. Personally I think the statue belongs at the stadium.
