Coughlin Alumni Upgrades Rough Drafts

Post by Thumper 76 »

Here are some sketches from Crawford Architects http://www.crawfordarch.com/project.aspx?ID=121 on how the home of the Jacks will look once funding is put together. Just rough drafts, but exciting for us none the less. :D

*Note* Its the general consensus that the massive videoboard and the fieldhouse will not be there, with the massive board being a bit pie in the sky. Will seat 20,000

Nice, but the question is. If you build it, will they come?

Well we ave. 13,000 last year. Don't expect that this year with our weak home schedule but its definately too small for Hobo Day and Dakota Marker games.

I think it is an awesome looking stadium, but I am a little surprise that SDSU is not thinking dome with the way their attendance is effected by weather late in the season. Has that ever been talked about.

From what I hear talking to people a lot of people would be insanely upset if we got a dome, myself included. A part of the reason for some of the low attendance in the later months besides bad weather is who we play. Add to that that a lot of the fan base doesn't understand who the good teams are that we play in conference quite yet. In time I think it will start to come around. I mean when we played NDSU for our last game of the season in 07 in frigid weather it was still a record setting attendance to that game, so if we get the field, I figure they will come. Besides, I for one, do not want to be like our sissy rivals :twisted:
