I just think the next fix for the stadium should be the exterior and making some kind of uniformity to it. We will soon have what looks like a stadium with four time periods.

Yes, it bothers me. I think we need to really make a move to tear down the existing press box and Rebel Club. The Ford Center Drive in 10 years will look completely different. It's important to create a front door on that side as well. What currently sits there does not accomplish that.

They just renovated the press box so that is staying there. They could expand it and do some retrofitting to make it look more like the South EZ. As for the Rebel club, It just needs a new roof and an upper section to match what they did in the SEZ.

The university needs to start selling some of the marijuana it grows to pay for a brick and white column facade.

Wishlist:
Match NEZ like SEZ
Some got damn uniformity, stadium needs to fit together much better.
Renovation of some sort with the Press box.
Renovation of some sort with the Rebel Club.
Renovation of exterior East side of stadium.
Anything else?

I think we need to update the Rebel Club if not replace it. The thing looks like something from Star Trek. The East and West sides need some uniformity before we sack up and finish the SEZ completely.

How often do they touch up the red paint on top of the SEZ? Seems a little faded. I'm also worried that the Pavilion roof will fade over time, and it's far more visible than the top of the SEZ

Is it just me or are any of y'all afraid they aren't gonna get the Pavilion ready for the opener? We're less than a month from opening it, and the inside is a wreck.

I've been afraid they weren't going to be ready in time for the Alabama game for awhile now. I also have the same fear for the NEZ. I guess our construction crew likes to procrastinate.

What do you not think will be ready by next month? They are cutting it close but everything big time is installed.

I think they'll be ready in time for both but for some reason tho I always get nervous that they won't be.

What makes you feel that way about the NEZ? They have nine months to do it

I wonder how they plan to use this screen. It isn't level with where the new seats would end.

I'm guessing the GC will lose a bonus and maybe get hammered with penalties if the Pavillion isn't ready for the opener.
