UT completes feasibility study on $106M Neyland upgrade http://www.knoxnews.com/story/sports/2016/10/18/neyland-stadium-renovation-plan/92350678/
Decline upgrade. Invest in non-Big East caliber coach. Set aside a certain percentage of annual revenue increases to pay for Neyland upgrade. Begin project in 10 years, with added feature of expanding trophy room.
Quote from Dave Hart: "Nowhere in the SEC will you find a better place to watch the home team be pulverized by the conference elite."
Screw that. I want old Neyland. No urinals, only troughs. I don't need a Calhoun's, a Fleming's or a Five Guys either. Give me Jon Gruden and pure debauchery in the stands, that is all I want.
Yes. Old Neyland is the best Neyland. Love the lower concourses in the south end zone and the east sideline.
That shit all still in the south upper deck. Have fun waiting in line for it. Or just trying move in general.
The worst I've seen is the lower concourse on the west sideline. It's a ****ing disaster during halftime.
It is novel to have all this crap at a stadium, but that is all secondary, nay tertiary, NAY, infinitesimal compared to the product on the field. Give me a stadium with character, charm and atmosphere and a great product on the field to jumbo tron, calhouns and dance music piped in at 110 db. Now get off my lawn.
You can sit in the south end zone under the overhang and not see the Jumbotron. There's numerous other options from pizza to hotdogs to eat. And if you listen to the game on the radio earbuds drown out the sound. Problems solved.
