We've been planning an expansion right after the new practice facility is complete, turn the tedium into a bowl.

They shouldn't be referred to SEC members... just call them the outcasts.

Ole Miss and Vandy could join the outcast group or outkast?

I hear they're cutting the seats in half again at Neyland to up their capacity.

Alden, Mizzou AD is working on improvements to facilities as a whole not just football. The plan is supposed to be announced this summer sometime. Considering the sweet plans that Long announced at Arkansas they better be MAJOR improvements or I will be pissed.

Mizzou is developing plans to add luxury boxes & ~5,000 seats.

Bryant Denny is maxed out. We could renovate the west upper deck for more suites. Something similar to what LSU did a few years ago. I have heard some plans to build a hotel/condos into the BDS structure, where the "circle ramps" are. A good architect could get really creative with that space.

The next project at Alabama is a new baseball stadium. I have heard about a possible riverfront stadium near downtown Tuscaloosa.

ATM is so long overdue for upgrades that they could begin tomorrow on construction and they will not be ready for 2015 season.

From how Mizzou looks now, they have a lot of work to do. But I think their current design allows for a lot of opportunity to build on to the current structure. By comparison, ATM does not have that flexibility.

Arky has a great plan in place. I am looking forward to see what they get done.

I like what LSU has planned.

Auburn has a great stadium but I am not sure their current fan base Can support a significant addition to the stadium.

MSU and Ole miss both have attractive plans in place. No idea if they will ever get done.

Isn't USCeast getting set for a stadium addition to the other end zone? I remember seeing pictures a few years ago.

Down to about 10" these days. Or about one third of their alumnis width.

Doesn't MSU already have renderings of an addition and is beginning to build shortly?

IHL approved bonds up to $82 million. North endzone is $65mm and will start as soon as contract is awarded. All they will be allowed to do this Fall is start stuff that doesn't take away the North Endzone bleachers until season is over. As soon as the last game, destruction begins. The West stands will be Phase 2 or phase 1B. They might go ahead with the 1B that will take it to $75mm. I was on West side last night. Really, really need to make that happen. West stands are horrible. This, straight out of Scott Stricklin's mouth yesterday morning.
