We'll have to agree to disagree. The reality is many, many NFL and MLB teams (as well as other universities) are making similar moves and none of them would be doing so if they felt they were losing money in the deal.

Aligns with what we've been saying. To claim we have to have a stadium in the 55-60k range going forward totally ignores these trends. My vote is for something ultimately in the 45-50k range with more premium seating options.

I miss these too. We definitely had a strong 'classic football' look going during this time.

Anyone else remember the 2006 ACC Championship game? I distinctly remember it because I came home from running errands on a Saturday afternoon to turn on the TV and be somewhat astounded we were wearing something resembling the 1990 era home uniforms, except the shirt was - black (!?) I've had...

I love Wes. Still not sure why he left the studio show, but good to see him.

This is what we were wearing in my era. This will always be 'the' Tech look for me. Oddly with the old-school GWG on the road...

I believe this is the case. I wasn't around (yet) but I've seen footage (linked) of the Tech-Tenn games from this time period and it looked like we had navy blue jersey numbers and jersey stripes. Have a look and see what you think - YMMV... 1972 game: 1980 game:

For those who have been onsite recently, does it look like ingress/ egress to these stands is impacted by the construction? I'm sure this will still be a mess come a few weeks from now...

I thought the interview early on with CBK was instructive. He suggested the big change from two years ago to now was re-establishment of a focus on football fundamentals (special teams, line play, etc.), coupled with a better level of player confidence and team camaraderie. Not a surprise as we...

Totally agree with this.

To each his own. Current attendance trends across all sports likely don't support that direction, but time will tell in Tech's case. At any rate, my view is we should strive for the most modern stadium we can afford, with the best amenities. We should not be going for the largest stadium we can...

Our stadium looked great circa 1990. Sorry, and I know a lot of you are fond of the upper north, but since 2003 BDS has been more of a Frankenstadium than I’d like.

Cal: Duke:

Thinking about it, and again looking just at the stadium, I'd put Wallace Wade up there. No one goes to games at Duke, and so the atmosphere stinks, but it's another classic which looks great these days post renovation.

If we're ranking stadiums (alone) and not game days atmosphere I don't agree at all. Lane Stadium has great game atmosphere, sure, but it's yet another 1960's era stadium with some recent add-ons. At its bones it is not too different in design from a slew of similar stadiums built at the same...

Good progress. Too bad we can't just remove all the upper sections of the NEZ stands entirely. Leave that lower bit that effectively bowls in the north, east and south and call it a day.

Agree, was nice to read that perspective. Honestly, I think this could be a fun series - if we ever get around to playing them more than once or twice...

Nice. Thanks.

I for one am happy the MBS series is ending.

Thanks.
