You got an artist rendition of it for us, Froggie?

Nope... They're really keeping this under the table.

All I know is that it's being done from private donations - as opposed to the endowment or university spending - and that Danny Morrison's (our AD) goal is to make it "the Camden Yards of college football." It's likely that preliminary mock ups will be surfacing shortly, but that's anyone's guess.

Froggie,

Where are they going to build it?

My guess is that the reason is because it's cheaper to tear down an endzone section and build something like that vs. trying to fit it on top of an existing sideline section. Rice's stadium is the same way, and I believe Tulsa is doing this, too.

Definitely glad that they did it right the first time with Ford.
