Even after they remove GT endzone I bet JeT and SD will still be able to find it.

Justin scored all 3 of his touchdowns in that endzone, the facilites crew should wrap that part up and send it to the Thomas family

There must be a GT man in charge of the project

I wouldn't doubt it @UgaBlows , there are lots of construction firms in Florida run by GT alums. If it was AstroTurf they could section it off and sell it, but it looks like natural grass

Per wiki it is a natural grass field

Reducing capacity by 10k.....http://miami.cbslocal.com/2015/01/05/renovations-underway-at-sun-life-stadium/

Might get a sell out or two then

Dah U? They would have to reduce capacity by another 15k to consistently sell out......the new setup will be 66k.......they average just under 50k / game

Man, Tech dominated more than I thought

Looking forward to seeing it when we are in the semifinals next year.

It looks like a pretty nice design, I wouldn't be surprised if they got a boost in attendance after this.

Is that hurricane proof? the roof looks kite-like lol

If there is a hurricane, you will be blown/flown to safety...

 

[jackette]

didn't think about the GT football team will return there this fall to play that Hurricane team, what's their name UThugs ?? something like that, anyway I flew to Miami to see GT play them in 2005 and 2007 when the U played their home games at the Orange Bowl stadium (what a dump). GT won both years, will have to go see them play at Sun Life this fall


GT win over 3rd ranked Miami in 2005

I think it's a 2 year renovation, so it won't look completely like that when we visit. I'm guessing they'll get the main seating/field configuration correct first (aka get rid of all baseball elements), then work on the exterior design.

as of 1-16 GT still there, waiting on Justin to bust loose for his 4th TD (I have a friend on this project, thus the photos)
