I was at that game. Strange start, typical finish.Can see the team bus arriving on the plastic grass
now.
Man, so much progress so quickly! I love these photo updates. Seven more weeks and all of us get to see this either in-person or on screen.
I too went to the game and for several weeks, Corso was talking about how people loved the pregame warm-ups. The team warmed up in the field house and used the double deck busses to go to the stadium. A large number of fans were pi$$ed because the team arrived with less than 5 minutes before kick-off. I never arrived early for another game...
No, next July. If they could get this done in the next 48 days, those workers would be set for life.
I have not been to Btown since the last basketball game. Time for a road trip including a Strom, a burger at Quaff on, a show at Bluebird, Golf at BCC and breakfast at Runcilbe.
Who's with me?

The south end zone board coming in 2018 is supposed to be 40 X 90. The one they're putting up for this season in the north end zone, which will remain for the future, is only 20 X 60, but they really couldn't put anything much bigger there without it looking obnoxious. Also, long-term that's just going to be a secondary board.
Great shot. The power washing continues in the west stands as well.
Very very cool and attractive. Alert the athletics department. Any idea about expense?
They are making some progress. I guess we can say the stadium is officially enclosed. I'm interested if the stadium will sound louder with what they have completed by the OSU game.
Yep, rode by there yesterday and the crane was gone. Gonna strain the ol' neck this year watching replays!Scoreboard is up:
Ha ha yeah. I imagine there's gonna be a ton of complaining about that this year. It's only one year, folks.
Sheesh, that is some rapid progress! Can't wait til the unveiling of the finished product next August.
Hey Hoosier fans. Rutgers fan coming in peace.
Stumbled upon this stadium renovation project and it looks great. Seems that the Big Ten has its own facilities arm race going on -- which I guess is what happens when you hand people parking lots full of money.
So what does this current renovation bring and what's in the plans for years to come?
We just re-did our football weight room (few mil private funding), built a very basic indoor baseball practice facility and a very nice football practice complex (8.5 mil private funding). A multi sport complex is getting started next year as well.
Lots of improvements but we still have some major areas of improvement in this never ending race.

This is a good detailed explaination:

We enclosed our north end zone in 2009, and added a hall of champions, a new 25,000 square-foot weight room, a new football complex/offices, offices for the athletic department, and a new 20,000 square-foot academic center under the east stands:
The current south end zone project on the other side of the stadium will be completed next July. It goes into more detail/renderings in the link I provided at the top of my post, but the main focus will be a new sport science facility, a new nutrition/dining hall for the athletes, a new health/rehabilitation center, a new career services/counseling center, a new club area for fans, and a rooftop terrace for fans.
A new videoboard was added in the north end zone for this year, and a larger videoboard will be added to the south end zone next summer. The older concessions/restrooms in the stadium, along with the press box and stadium club, will be renovated to be up to ADA standards. More ADA seating will also be added to the west and east stands. It will also allow for the football locker room to be expanded and renovated, and for a new football players lounge to be built...
