Which happens first? The indoor facility or the partial renderings you can see of the east side?

A walkway above ground similar to what connects dining hall to River Street deck would be smart from either endzone or the athletic offices, suites, etc. to the indoor facility.

Sofield needed first. Multiple teams use it.

Is softballs new facility complete yet? A lot of scheduling needed on this one.

And the Jerry Moore Plaza.

Funny that they included the East Side design yet forgot the scoreboard and the plaza.

There is where I beat a dead horse. When there is funding for a project, there is an announcement. This is why the East side plan never had funding secured. Because I'm far from a genius, so I know for a fact it didn't take a genius to know "funding secured" was untrue.

If you look closely you can see the purposed east side structure above the existing KBS east side seating...which leads me to think there is a master plan rendering out there.

Leak the whole picture!

That is about the IPF, not the East side.

The IPF is part of the entire stadium area expansion/addition. Maybe call the athletic department and ask instead of just complaining on here. They’ll tell you the plan.
Give 'em hell!

Hopeful this includes tearing down the East Side 2nd deck metal bleachers with 10 metal staircases and 100 concrete columns that crowd the concourse.

$150M+ spent in 7 years and we still have metal structures and bleachers.

Take note- https://www.oregonlive.com/beavers/2023 ... -tour.html
Absolutely gorgeous and a great example to draw from. Maybe DG will visit the football stadium when basketball plays them.

They have a plan. That is clear. They don't have funding for the East side expansion. That is also clear.

We will find out after the season, going into winter and spring, if the funding exists. Either they will construct the projects or they won't. I'm not going to worry about renderings, lip service, or rumors. Either it happens or it doesn't.
