Plenty of time to become season ticket holder if not already.

I think the stadium looks cool as hell. 

Biggest disappointment is it appears there will not be much shade. As a Dolphins Season Ticket holder the shade we have at Hard Rock is a game changer. Worse part of Ray Jay is the heat. I would use some of the resources towards that.

East-west orientation and location of the tower should build in a significant amount of shade for the home side, plus the design will allow for adding additional shade structures later. I'm satisfied the issue has been addressed and not simply ignored like it doesn't matter (you're right, it very much does).

Of all the games I went to at Tampa Stadium/RJS from 97-2005, I don't ever remember thinking about shade.  Getting rained on was worse.  And no, I wasn't high up tucked under an overhang.  Never did I

Just build whatever we can for the price we can afford.  It will likely be far less glamorous than any rendering to date, but we are about 10 years past this being the most pressing issue we have with

What was all that months ago about Golesh's contract and a stadium?  Seems he'll be either gone or extended by then.

I suspect he will be gone. Atleast I hope he will be. If we continue being successful someone is going to take him away. My hope is in the next 3 seasons we do enough to have him poached.

interesting. Was not able to watch. Glad they are taking it into account. Games are much more enjoyable if you are not baking in the heat.

I hope we pay him and rise to power.

East-West also allows for better wind flow... the winds in Tampa tend to be more westerly, so the openings on that end of the stadium means more of a breeze.

Really we should do enough to have him stay - if he's that good.  We gotta quit being losers and surrendering years in advance.

Adding shade structures is apparently stupid expensive. SDSU nixed the shade canopies they wanted because estimates were $50-$100M for just that. Don't know what it would've cost y'all because that quote I'm sure has a California price increase plus it can change depending the exact design of the shade structures.

Yeah, it also has a BYU Stadium vibe too. I’m not the biggest fan, but overall, it’s good.
