Moody Renderings

Here are some phone camera shots, will load better quality later today.

Overheard an SMU rep telling the W bball coach that they hope to start in the next two years and it will take two years as they phase it around Moody activities.

It is also my opinion that this is not the final plans. I've hear people talking about the plans that have been around for years and I'm guessing these are them. They just don't look like the quality of stuff that is being done today.

Did anyone mention what the seating capacity will be when renovations are complete?

I just had to change my boxers. Looks awesome.

Would also like to know if any figures were thrown out as to what the new seating capacity will be...I would guess that a new seating configuration and the construction of those luxury suites should bump it down to the 8,000 or 7,500 range (which is fine IMO)

that's a student wall, if ever there was one, and really steep

DMN has now posted links to those renderings-maybe easier to see. Interesting, Turner given full credit for soliciting donation.

I am very pleased. Very.

We may have our issues with Dr. Turner, but the guy can flat out fund raise. I have no doubt he will find a way to get the other $20 million.

And when he's really interested in doing something for athletics, he'll go full throttle. We just have to keep his mindset consistent on that.

I thought the idea of the North Tower was pretty interesting.

Are the renovations something SMU believes can be accomplished between basketball & Volleyball seasons or will the teams need to use an alternate site?

SMU is participating in the Dr. Pepper HS Tournament this year?
