TCU did a great job with their stadium renovations. I had heard at one point the

architecture firm they worked with had also met with BYU but I can't claim any kind of validity to those discussions. I really like what TCU did, also Minnesota did a great job with their stadium. I'm all for quality over quantity and honestly that is what is going to sell -- not cheap corner seats.

Here's what LES looks like with 4 corners + East stand (+sold out.)

Too bad filled in and filled up is virtually impossible.

C'mon. All we need is for the BOT to increase enrollment to 70,000.

The sides and end-zone seats are the same angle. They don't match up

Fill in the corners and replace bleachers with seats.

Before they add more seats, I would prefer to add a nice facade

Looks like the Seattle Seahawks stadium.

Maybe in how the sides are arched. TCU's has a much more collegiate look.

Good looking stadium

Something akin to that with 60k seats would be perfect for BYU.

Totally agree

During construction, part of the north end zone expansion collapsed. I was the

Would look amazing but does little to game experience.

Do you have another version of that without the upper deck?

9/17/14 6:29pm

Replace that upper deck with a video screen.

Can't find one, if it exists. Just this one with a couple more decks:

Can you also show me the new parking garage that goes with the new plan?

sah22

Maybe we should add additional decks all the way to heaven.

Y'zMan

9/17/14 9:33pm

Needs more decks.

9/18/14 7:44am

What would capacity of such a stadium be?

FiveTen-BuckEighty

9/17/14 6:30pm

Probably 100k

southernfriedcougar

9/17/14 6:33pm

Or 100M. No need to be too conservative.

That picture gave me a special feeling. Nicely done!

You might want to discuss that with your bishop.

I like the look of that stadium except the raised East Stands.

Since we are dreaming, I would do something like this...

There has to be a rich Mormon out there that can help us with that.

It's beautiful, brings a tear to my eye. 85k filled seats & the P5 can't say no

HarlemCoug

9/17/14 8:56pm

Yep, our invite to a big conference hinges entirely on the size of our stadium.

ataylor

9/17/14 9:25pm

Are you suggesting money doesn't matter when considering an invite?

HarlemCoug

9/17/14 9:42pm

Nope. I'm suggesting an increase in stadium capacity won't get us P5 entry.

Utah is expanding eventually, here's the renderings.

LiquidUte

Yeah they canned that.....much like BYU....need to have sellouts first.

Not canned, back-burnered while the rest of our facilites are improved.

That's code for "not going to happen"

digitalayon

Oh and I don't think Stanford is selling out either.

LiquidUte

Perhaps gas prices these days effecting it. Cal is the poster child though.
