Three months from opener, here's where things stand for UL football's new stadium project

Probably 2027 season at this point.

I was told it would begin immediately after the 2025 season. But you may have heard this more recently?

According to my close in the loop source they stated:
"Renovations to the east side will begin in 2026.

When you say 2026. Does that mean like Jan 2026 after the season or after the 2026 season.

“It’ll be completely graphiced out and exciting and fun, a whole new experience for when you walk into the facility compared to what Cajun Field was previously,” Frazier said.

So...any banners

I saw renderings released by the university that had banners on the new Home side

Are there any updates to the East side "artist's conception" pic I saw a few years ago?
If so, can anyone post it?

Probable completion.

Good question. They were not specific.

As of last week it was not happening after the ‘25 season. Far from being at any point to begin construction. They’ve just modified the plans to bring the project closer to budget numbers. Plus awaiting state funding upgrades.

Thank you for the update. In the latest revision, is the lower east side bowl having to be replaced or will it just be the structure above it?

I believe the lower bowl has to be replaced. At least that was in the original plan.
