Have people just not been to LES in 5 years? The corners ARE filled in now. What

are they gonna do, remove the Champions Club that they just put in?

Corner seats would be terrible anyway. We need more sideline seats. Build a new luxury box with an upper deck at the bottom of it that covers the top part of the current west stands.

Our stadium being dissed

byukarl

Jul 25, 7:09am

Yeah, he's right.. t's kind of an ugly stadium that hearkens to the Geneva Steel

80s design that had its day. Agreed time to move on

It needs a façade to cover the stark steel column/beam underbelly.

A facade on one or both of the main stands would help so much. Texas Tech’s stadium is smaller than LES but looks nicer

Jul 25, 8:33am

Tennessee's Neyland stadium used to have that K'nex / erector set look, but they

You’re describing UCF’s stadium. Tiny steal erector set they later covered up

The ONLY thing great about our stadium are the views... It's old, cheaply built and very outdated

Still better the RES though...

Compared to teams with WAC/MWC/Indy budgets it’s pretty amazing

Agree but the huge screen is nice.

I guess I don't really think "wow this is so much better than LES" when I go

Went to the game against Michigan. Was surprised how crappy the stadium was.

Cheaply built?! Spare me

Who cares? Views are Priceless

The views help take the attention off the stadium, but the stadium's

Most college football stadiums aren't all that nice. I'll take LES over most.

Agreed. It’s one of the best in the West, & I’d think top 20 in the country.

If you're comparing your date to a football stadium, I'm concerned about both you and your date

You wouldn't date someone that could fit 60,000 people in their mouth?

Agree. It lets air flow in. Games at OU get hot and stinky, the wind at LES

Ill be honest, I don’t care one bit what a guy calling himself “Depressed Ginger” thinks about anything

Jul 25, 7:22am

A misnomer many have about “filling in the corners”

CaliWG

Jul 25, 7:35am

And yet the first 5-10 rows on the east side are not used every game

BYU Grounds

Jul 25, 7:41am

They save those for recruits and their families. It's tricky to ensure those seats get used each game.

HarlemCoug

Jul 25, 7:44am

Yup. It also includes seats specifically for athletes of other sports.

andrewg3

Jul 25, 10:28am

Corner seats are fine. More lower level seating is always in demand.

CaliWG

Jul 25, 12:10pm

I can’t think of a worse seat for watching football than a lower level corner.

andrewg3

Jul 25, 10:28pm

Corner seats would be the worst seats in the stadium.

*Upper corner seats would be the worst

You’re thinking of basketball

Unless they've made major renovations, same with the "big house" at Michigan.

Notre Dame is now incredible because they built fantastic structures around it.

I'd rather BYU fork over some money for a QB ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If we had a billon to spend then I would want it to be put to NIL.

The solution is to fill in the gaps and keep capacity roughly where it's at

Beggar

Jul 25, 9:07am

It's extremely outdated. It might be cheaper to build new rather than update.

I don’t understand why we have to talk about this every six months, it has been explained over and over that the gaps

I don’t have CFP25 but it looks like the Champions Club is missing

What exactly is the cost/benefit on that? Since this video is commenting about aesthetics

They NEED to renovate the stadium, but I’d support clubs in every corner

Interestingly ESPN just ranked the 'best' stadiums - BYU and LES came in #31

Ranking BSU ahead of anyone makes me question this entire list.

Corners don't need to be filled. BUT individual seats stadium-wide are needed.
