[QUOTE="jrichisamazing, post: 1322067, member: 8500"] I love the positivity, keep it up guys.;) Having gone through a few renovations now on IL, I realize literally every single person is going to have a different opinion on this. But where else did you want the new facility to go? Really the only other option was to build it in the south endzone, which is too restricting, or build a facility further away. Both of those options have more negatives than simply obstructing less than 1/4 of 1 side of the stadium. Plus, Grange Grove with the columns as a back drop is one of the most picturesque places in all of college football IMO. Also, I'm sure Whitman will more than make up for the obstruction by building a grand south entrance. [/QUOTE]
