Actual construction won't begin until after this season if I have that right.
correct. There are a number of buildings built over the years that attach to or are in very close proximity to Kyle and all of those are goners.

Are they re-doing the entire south end zone in one phase, to be ready for the 2014 year then?
There is no south end zone today. Kyle has forever been a horseshoe. We've had temporary bleachers put in the South for a few years now because we ran out of capacity. However, both Netum Steed and the scoreboard have to be demo'd because they are where the new seating will be.

Are you aware of any renderings of what the stadium will look like for the 2014 season, with just the Phase 1 renovations?
I'm not. My guess is 3/4 of the stadium will look like the renderings and the West will look like it does today.

I think it would we pretty cool if we could post some old Kyle photo's to the site ... especially since this is pinned. Even better if we could insert them either at the beginning of the thread or after the first rendering of pics. Don't know if that's possible but it might be good info for the Ranters...just my two cents.

Got ya. What I was wondering was if they were going to get all 3 levels done in the south endzone all this offseason or do they plan on getting the first level done and closing it off in Phase 1 and then putting the upper tiers in during Phase 2. Sounds like they're going to do it all in Phase 1 though, which maybe I'm crazy, but that is pretty astonishing. Kind of wish Mizzou had 1 more trip to CS to see the place after all the changes.

Crazy to me, because that jumbotron is still very new. My fish year ('06) was its first year of operation.
