Cajun Field Renovation Plans

[Turbine]

Anything with a canopy and better seating in the lower bowl.

Louisiana Saturday Night scheduling fixes that problem.

This I got off the UL alumni association Facebook page. These are the original drawing for Cajun Field. The only thing I would change is a small upper deck and nice press box on the home side. For future expansion if need be would be on the visitor side just like the picture. I agree with the canopy just for the fact it keeps the noise in the stadium.

Dude seriously, this isn't South Africa! Can you show me an actual NCAA Football Stadium with a canopy today? A modern traditional stadium similar to SMU will do the job unless some of you millennials care to drop some extra dimes in the box. LMOA!!!

Fortunately for Texas Southern, they get to play in BBVA Compass stadium.

In Houston, but that is not an NCAA Facility. Again, no one in this country is building a look-a-like soccer football stadium for college football. A tradition look like SMU will work, what that looks like we will see after it comes back from the architects.

Don't group me in with 'Lil Zee and his crew. Lol

We don't need some crazy dual upper decks. But the entire lower bowl should be redone and given better sight lines. Suites on both sides and canopies covering the stands. The exterior should match Russo and Lamson Park.

Something very similar to this.

We won't do anything with the student side right now, the cost would be anywhere from $8 mil to $10 mil just to bring the electrical, plumbing and drainage up to code today. And that would be before moving forward on new construction.

Finish the lower bowl with concessions.. Tear down the upper deck, replace with Suites and Press Box/Offices.


Seems like the only reasonable thing that might possibly be in our budget?

Our first goal should be to completely renovate the lower bowl. At least that’s my opinion. But I don’t have $100M to do what I’d like to see done. Which is nothing crazy, or truly outlandish. But it would probably take $75M to complete everything. It would essentially be a completely new lower bowl and it would 100% mirror the new MLS stadium. Which are 100% built for creating a better atmosphere and making smaller stadiums feel like much larger venues.
