Anyway, would like to see some rendition's of Phase 2 if anyone has. Did not even know there was a phase 2.

The east side is in the sun as the sun sets in the west. The west side is blocked from the sun by the stadium. So the sun will be in the face of the new press box, but not the luxury suites on the west side.

Not with no Duck Blind Special Press Box.

Those Oregon Ducks would be easy pickins.

Michigan stealing signals would seem 1st grade next to a "pressbox is designed by a firm from Gueydan."

Is the East a total teardown as well? If so, is it possible to move the benchbacks from the west side to the east for next season?

A Cajun duck blind east side press box sounds appropriate. They may like adding sun blocking camouflage. And Cajun duck blinds can be tricked out, too.

I’m certainly not “in the know” but pretty sure I’ve heard it’s also a total rebuild. This way the entire stadium not only looks uniform but also meets updated (ADA) requirements.

I am curious how the lighting will be handled during the renovations. I asked that question in an older thread but haven’t seen or heard any responses.
