Hey, that is a sweet pic. Makes you realize "what could be" at GSU. For the love of God put some seating in the enzone for a horsehoe shape, your school deserves it!

No horseshoe! Maybe another section or two of seats on both sides of the stands but leave some hill! xnodx

There is a big debate on TSC about which way to expand Paulson Stadium. A popular option (pardon the pun) is to expand outward and fill the endzone, but there are some who would hate to take away the hills the kids slide down. The other is to go up but it might make the stadium look strange, like, unbalanced until there was sufficient demand for upper decking both sides. Either way, expansion means attendance is increasing so I am all for it. xthumbsupx

[brownbear]

What if you extended the sideline seating down to the corners, and you would still have the hill in the endzone?

[GaSouthern]

A little, but not much, alot of people want to bowl the endzone building end of the field and leave the scoreboard end open.

Cheaper than double decking and makes for a great view from the road / adds possible tunnels to run out through.

if you look on the far left top you can see my old apartmen complex! :)

[CRAZY_DANE]

The latest news on UAlbany Stadium is that it was included in the 2008 SUNY budget request. That was the first hurdle we had to make. The budget now sits with the governor. It's going to be a brutal budget year for NY but we're hopeful. Our AD said that the hope is that ground would be broken in the fall. We'll know if the stadium made the final budget when the budget is passed in the late 1st quarter. We have some politicians that have given the stadium at least some superficial support. The NYS Legislature Majority Leader said that he thought we'd get a stadium but the through in a caveat of not being sure if it would be this year. Still... things have progressed and aren't looking too bad.

ASU has had snowstorm games at home but most of those were way back... I know there were a few in the 80's... That was a dream of mine to happen while i was here but being that I am graduating before next season it wont happen while I am a student:(

[The Gadfly]

Walked around Coastal's Brooks Stadium yesterday and saw that the engineers have set up a water wall and path at the site of the future field house. It looks like they are ready to set up the foundation. I'm guessing that they are ready to actually build this thing. I also saw the "Barn," the athletic weight . . . "building," which is HUGE and very nice. I would think they would keep the Barn and use the space in the field house, that would be used for the weight room, for something else.

If its moved why not just move to to Atlanta in the Georgia Dome? Better airport for people coming in from out of the region, larger stadium with plenty of seats - also a great venue for those who have never been there. Outside attractions for the entire weekend, plenty of hotel rooms, etc.

Too big a stadium for the championship. Calling the Georgia Dome a great venue is a real stretch. Football is played outdoors.

There's a stadium I've been trying like crazy to find a really good big picture of. It's Eastern Illinois' O'Brien Stadium.

I hate the track around the field! But EIU has a great track team and the Illinois High School state championship is held at EIU. Agreed it is quite an eye sore, and I believe hurts the atmosphere of the games! But what are you going to do, I don't have millions of dollars to donate towards building a new stadium. I'm still searching for a better pic of the grandstand.

Like this

Seems like you all are going to be like Sanford Stadium eventually. You already have the first tier of the bowl along the sidelines (Like Sanford pre-1967). Then, you add the upper decks along the sidelines (1967 expansion), then one endzone gets added (1981 expansion).

Unlike Sanford Stadium, you don't have the road bridge in one endzone, so by 2050, Paulson could actually be bigger than Sanford to be the biggest stadium in Georgia.

I think it would take 100 more years for us to get to the size of Sanford. Most of us don't want the biggest stadium just to have the biggest stadium. Enough seats for the fans would be a nice addition, though.xrolleyesx

That visitor side looks like a high school. xlolx

[McNeese72]

Did it rain? Because that field looks kinda muddy.


Yep, there was a nice thunderstorm about an hour before game time. I don't think they are used to that much rain because the streets didn't drain worth a crap and the people were remarking about how hard it rained. As you know thunderstorms like that are a normal almost daily occurence down here in the summertime. I think we had an advantage because our guys were more used to playing on muddy fields (practice fields mainly) than their guys.

Bailey Memorial Stadium. Capacity at 6,500 and designed to expand easily if necessary. It's small, for sure, but it would've been pointless for a school as small as PC to build anything bigger. I like the more intimate atmosphere, especially because I knew a lot of the players as an undergrad. I love home games at Bailey because I get to see familiar faces everywhere, both in the stands and on the field. I much prefer Bailey's atmosphere to Doak Campbell's because here at FSU I feel like just a drop in the ocean instead of a member of a community.

McNeese's new turf (and a hopeful NFL draft pick for this weekend seated in front of three of the guys McNeese hopes will replace his production...). The picture shows how vivid and sharp the colors on the new turf are. It really is outstanding...and I'm hardly one to gush over what the home team does just for the sake of gushing... Edit to add: Actually, after I reduced the file size using photo bucket, it seems to have lightened the colors a bit. This photo is a little less "vivid" than real life....I'll work on that (Doc, what do I do?)

Helping: Hayes trying to make a difference

William Hayes is in the very early stages of what he hopes will be a successful NFL career but he is also finding time to focus on helping others.

Hayes, a former star at High Point Andrews and Winston-Salem State, was a fourth-round pick by the Tennessee Titans in April's NFL Draft. He will speak in Jamestown next week, talking about his life on and off the football field in a speech titled "Making the Right Choices."

That's a rather arrogant thing to say when you know nothing about the fanbase. MSU was in the top 10 for FCS attendance last year. Averaged more than 13k.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

Actually it was 14,245 at 109.58% of capacity.

Doesn't compare too badly with App. St. before the last couple of years. In fact it beats out the 2004 (and maybe 2005) attendance. You're gonna get comments like that though from a bunch of new App fans with no sense of what is going on around the country I guess.

The team in WSSU's stadium produces top quality action and talent... what good is your stadium if a bunch of bums are playing on the field? That's the purpose of me posting the article about WSSU's 2008 draft pick. The stadium serves it's purpose, you have a seat to see some great football.

[MplsBison]

I believe that's called FBS football.

And it should be FCS too.

[slostang]

If this board had standards Mpls would not be a member.

[Jackman]

And it should be FCS too.

Well, there is a faction out there that would like to see a third football subdivision for the non-scholarship programs, but I think that would eventually kill off the FCS level. If a third subdivision existed, I don't think you'd see the NEC increasing its scholarship allotments. Where would the FCS get the programs to replace the ones that leave? Who is going to opt for all of the expense of scholarship football without any of the FBS revenue, when you can just as easily win a (mostly ignored) championship playing non-scholly football? The tiny programs are needed to keep FCS viable.

[NorthernColorado]

I understand what your saying but at least Northern Colorado has a well maintained little place. SUU's is small and not so nice --two big strikes.

Thanks. I think the bigger issue with SUU is travel. It's fairly cheap for Big Sky teams to travel to Greeley because there is a major airport just an hour away. I like UNC's stadium because it's not too big (if they had a 20,000 seater, it would be 1/3 empty) and it's better than the dump they used to play at called Jackson Field.

Difficult to follow what you were comparing, but ASU 3 years ago, in 2005 had an average of 17,917 for the season including the play-off games compared to 13,710 for MSU. Over 23,000 per regular season game.

They say it will be ready for our first home game this year. Sept 20. Looks like they still have a lot more work.

[therealbigredrules]

Seats for about 23k with grass berm on scoreboard side should be near 25k or more. They are only adding about 5k seats. Most of the money went behind the new stands to make significant upgrade to overall facilities. Last I heard cost was about $40 to $45 Million. I have to say, they did it right. That is, rather than build 40k seats and never fill it. They went for quality rather than too many aluminum seats that would never be full. The suites are going to be very nice and have sold out. The revenue from the suites alone is about $700k. Nameing rights brought in $5million. Time will tell how this all works out.

xhypedx Hooray!!! I finally get to see the clock! But 89Jr will be bummed... he just lost his job of running down to yell the time back to me. :p


Lol. Welcome to the information age!!!

Also, beautiful stadium down there in Charleston!xthumbsupx I've only been to that town once, and that was to get off a plane and onto the bus to Parris Island at about zero dark thirty. Man that was a long night. I gotta get back down there for a game.

I took these pictures in my vacation to the Carolinas a few weeks ago. These are pictures of Elon's Rhodes Stadium, at least what it looks like in the summer.

The bell tower is located behind the entrance plaza. I think Elon's stadium is quite nice. It's designed for future expansion, really classy. As nice a stadium as you'll find given that its capacity is so small. Besides, anything is a step up from the days when they played at Western Alamance High School. xnodx

[furman94]

If they ever need to expand, they got all the room that they'll ever need!

[ericsaid]

Thats some nice grass, may just have to go camping in there. No rocks to hurt your back or poke holes in your tent.

I went to the asu elon game last year and absolutely loved their facility

When do they start building that?

I read that groundbreaking at the latest is early next week.

that will be a great improvement for you guys

what year was that picture taken?

Did you read the comments? Very funny. Something like "too bad nobody will be in those seats next year" posted 21 months ago. Boy oh boy.

wow what an interesting stadium... on the one hand the field and the one side are actually a beautiful structure from the air but that missing side sort of puts a downer on things...

There used to be some steal bleachers on the other side but they got removed some time in the 90's. There is a good sized mound there now though that students sit on a lot. They bring blankets and sit behind the visitor bench. There are some rumbles of a new stadium on campus though.

[elcid96]

Here are the final pics of our new stadium:

[Sycamore51]

That sure is a nice looking stadium down there. You all should be proud.

[appfan2008]

that looks great for you guys!...

i would love to catch an app game down there in the future... sure would be fun...

[ASUG8]

El Cid - great pics. I especially like that you can see the new Cooper River bridge in the background of that last pic. You guys should be proud (too bad it's gonna look like crap with the storm coming in this week).
Congrats!

I know this has nothing to do with stadiums but I think the storm is going to miss charleston... they are now aiming it more toward MB

I know it used to be a baseball stadium, but I can't tell where. Is that the infield area to the left of the field in that picture??

Either way, it's a lot nicer/bigger than I thought it was.

I'm just a fan of stadiums that don't have tracks around them, I guess.

You can still see the outline of the baseball stadium. If you look at the picture you can see where it makes the cone shape of home plate and what not. It's in the area of the hill side. Where the field is today is where right and center field would have been.

Is the stadium on campus? I remember the park with the stadium being on US 40 on the east side of town, but I forget if it's near the campus.

Wow that is a beautiful stadium and surrounding area.

As for Kidd-Brewer.......I'll just be happy when construction is actually done there. I'd guess over a year away from full completion...maybe longer

Anyone have pics of Kidd Brewerxsmiley_wix xlolx

Attached is a link I saw on Kidd Brewer in Boone......doesn't show the new double deck on the East side though except underneath it.

Guess that I should explain to some people that it is under construction......should be finished by 2009. Will be on national TV on Halloween this year.

Our stadium is about 3 miles off campus. This has created maybe the best homecoming tradition in America though, "THE WALK." Each year students and alumni set off at about 6 or 7 in the morning and walk to the stadium stopping at every bar along the way to have a few drinks. There's usually 15 to 20 bars for the thousands of people to stop at. Then when you finally do reach the stadium there are a ton of tents with more spirits for the taking. It's a rough and good time. Homecoming in the Haute is a special event!

Nice pic - I'm surprised you guys have the capacity that you do based on the pic. Never been to Statesboro, but it looks like the view of the field might be a little compromised due to how flat it appears in pictures.

All that being said, you guys have an amazing expansion opportunity with wrapping the horseshoe and upper decks if the AD decides to move you guys up. xthumbsupx

More proof that you need a track around the field xsmiley_wix

Good pictures!

Bowers Stadium officially seats 14,000. BUT, I have heard that if they were to fill the grass areas as well it could hold about 23,000 people. The largest crowd we have had in the stadium is about 16k.

If our coach would have grown some nads we might have hosted yall in Huntsville one year.

Anyone have any pictures of Campbell's stadium? All I've seen are construction photos from before any stands were constructed and a drawing of the planned stadium, so I don't know how big the stadium is currently.
