Your obsession with Missouri is bizarre and confirmation you're not a Texas fan.

Will you pussies actually install grass?

That is the real question.

There is only 2 options that could be used for Faurot Field tall fescue and GrassMaster. GrassMaster is combination of turf and natural grass that is used by the Green Bay Packers, Philadelphia Eagles, and a lot of soccer stadiums in Europe. GrassMaster is to expensive for college teams to use.

Part of the problem Mizzou has had in the past with natural grass is the the high water table, limestone, clay, flooding and a Missouri State Park a half mile from Mizzou Arena. Tall Fescue is good on clay, over a high water table, in humidity, and it would be good for when it gets cold in October and November. It struggles in high temperature and high traffic, but with maintenance that isn’t a issue.

A lot of stadiums are built on a high water table, but not the combination of of what is under and around Faurot Field. Alone most of those issues wouldn’t be a problem.

The proximity to the state park and flooding areas is a big problem. It is legally hard to make changes to the soil that close.

A few summers ago the creek that is a few feet deep flooded over 21 feet. Flooding could also be a problem with changes to the soil.

Engineer’s and the Chiefs field maintenance came and tried to find a viable option they recommended to stay with turf.

I’m sure they will probably try again in the next decade, but the field will not stand up to the problems.
