g-mann17 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 My understanding is that the AD and others were there to check out the plans for the new facility.As far as the field we were on, according to the UM athletics site, the remainder of the games, starting with the Akron game, will not be played on the west practice field as they are going to begin construction of the new facility on the "competition field".Very good! The brickwork shown on the rendering posted near the field looked really nice. If something like this were to be adopted at UA, it would dovetail nicely with the look of the Info and the overall campus IMHO.For those that haven't seen it...*edit: what michigan is doing (2200 seats) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbozeglav Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 2200 is a step down in capacity.But does our capacity include the grass hill behind the east goal or not? I can't remember, to be honest. That facility is exactly what we need here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the AD and others were not just checking out the Michigan plans for the actual facility but how they have been going about making this and other facility upgrades happen.
