Here we go again with the money argument.  How many wins or conference titles has that money contributed to?

More wins and the same number of conference titles as us

So have we discussed the latest leak of the renderings? Everybody hates in on 247. I'm partial to the bottom right. Why go traditional? I like this look.

Add me to those that don't like it. Reminds me of a soccer stadium or, hell, maybe even a D2 stadium. Not an FBS one, even for us. If we want to create a more traditional on-campus football experience then I feel we need an actual traditional on-campus stadium.

I have this argument with my father-in-law all the time. He lives and dies with WVU football - and hoops to a lesser degree. He’s always telling me how much TV $$ they’re bringing in as a member of the Big XII and I always ask him the same thing - “What’s your cut?”

When they were in the Big East, they were Top 25 ranked every year and beating Oklahoma and Georgia in BCS bowls. Hoops was almost annually in the Sweet 16 under Belein and Huggins. My father-in-law was enjoying every minute of it. Now, as a fan, he’s watching .500 teams most every year.

The moves have worked out monetarily for all those old Big East football schools, but not for the fandom at all.

TCU and Pittsburgh have shown that you can move up and have success. WVU has lost their mojo, but being in the Big 12 is not preventing them of getting their mojo back if they do things right. They just haven't made the right hires.

Not sure what exactly is contemplated by that "Extraordinary" depiction?  Is that a permanent shade sail across the field?  Overall,  I feel kind of "meh" about the design and have questions on practicality.

I like these renderings but I'm not opposed to a modern look as many here seem to be. If we learnt anything from SDSU, it's that you have to have shaded stands and shade areas in a southern climate.

Something about it doesn't look right, I think its one side having more space for luxury boxes than regular seating giving it a lopsided look.

A 35-40k version of OK State's stadium would be my preference. Just a horshoe shaped bowl with all that luxury seating spread out around the entire top. Then throw all the shade you want on top of it still, that parts fine.
