The worst part is that even if it was completed and looked like the original renderings it would still be dumb as hell

Seriously. It is just stupid.

It looks like a homeless shelter.

The shark idea was poorly executed. They should’ve put this on the helmets and gear:

Is it just in Louisiana where if you swim in the Mississippi and drown authorities rule the death a suicide?

Who TF swims in that river?

Even worse, the administration actually thinks these came out good. Michael Thompson Twitter

This picture was taken at 11am - great shade in the student party section if we have a morning kickoff. TVs, fans and charging stations being installed now.

This was what they had originally constructed that didn’t pass inspection and had to be removed. They are actual platforms to walk out on. The tents were put there afterwards because they promised something. The things that were tore down should have been improved to code because those would have actually been pretty cool but look no more safe than the old LFL rigs. If they collapsed they would have been riding a guillotine blade all the way to the field. I guess the tents were going to go on top decks

The platforms had potential..

sadly they're relegated to the tents you'd see in right field at Swayze...

Classic WAOM moment here

Would have been similar to our cabanas on the scoreboard deck but ours are on solid concrete

Maybe they could be the Ole Miss Snappers, put a snapping turtle on the helmets, but we would all know what the real Ole Miss Snappers were about.

Deleted. I just remembered that Wyoming beat us. I have no room to be critical of other schools.

Rumors are spreading regarding upgrades to the tents to include cooling stations, aka as kiddie pools for the baby land sharks.



ETA: An awesome positive spin on the tents would be when the baby shark fans use the tents as hang gliders to symbolize the death of any hope or dream of making it with more than a single win this season. Bad, bad choice of planning considering the depressing state of the current program. I can see those tents soaring beautifully at take-off. But everyone already knows the tragic ending.

6-6 (3-5) and 5-7 (1-7) with sanctions will do that.

I can't understand why the Ole Miss admin didn't just table it for this year and try to make the decks once the regular season ended. SMU has a party deck they could have looked at and there are probably a few other schools that have something similar.

I agree. Y'all should bring back Colonel Reb. I mean, anyone in the nation who sees a picture of him identifies with it being related to Ole Miss. And just like minorities don't give two shits about the state flag, I doubt they give a shite about the Rebel, bear, Landshark mascot since y'all are THE Rebels. Always will be. The majority of football players are black. I don't recall any of them having an issue with the Colonel. The State of MS didn't change their flag; I say take back your mascot. Everyone still calls y'all the Rebels, so screw it. This is a genuine request...I miss the Colonel. The respect y'all would get for refusing to change tradition (NOT history, they are NOT the same) would be a step forward.
