Memorial Stadium Renovation

[Mavric]

Dannen said there will be grass in the stadium by the 2026 season.  But they need to get equipment into the stadium to do renovation work and that would damage a grass surface.  So they will be able to lay this turf down, roll it back up when needed and put it back down to facilitate the equipment.

Trivial question: KSU and Northwestern shared both purple colors, same Wildcat nicknames and Willie the Wildcat mascots.  Who is the first ?

KSU.  Northwestern was a copycat (no pun intended)

Alternate plan ......

Same city !!! Almost for sure sellout ..... sellout streak continues !!!

Saturday May 3.  Workers weekend off.

Turner Construction crew.  I believe weekly safety talk. Lots of workers .... that is why much faster than Ryan Field project.

Ryan Field project, May 1st 2025

Roughly the same projects (early 2024 start).  KU stadium final product, August 2025. NW due date, 2027.  Huskers at Northwestern, 2027 schedule.

OK, so we aren't getting an all new video board.  They are just replacing the panels?  When they announced something was going to be done with that, I was under the impression that it was going to be some amazing new bigger and better video board.

Same size but higher quality, I believe. Bringing into the 4K era.

Still wish it was CORNHUSKERS instead of HUSKERS in the endzone, lean into the full name!

I'm more worried about the red beyond the end zones...
