Really proud of the upgrades made to the stadium over the last three years. The experience is much better, IMO. 1. Ribbon boards 2. Giant scoreboard near entrance 3. Endzone Facility with second giant scoreboard 4. Brand new colorful turf New Old

I agree.
Restrooms need to be next on the list, in my opinion.

The Athletic Department really needs to stop using Dr. Hawkins' playlist for music tracks. Don't worry...I fixed it.

More bleachers or replacing current ones?
We don’t need to add bleachers until we sell out on a constant basis.

They just bother me for whatever reason. I think I read or someone posted on here at one point they will take the upper home side section and install it on the visitor side while replacing the upper section of the home side. However, I’m sure that won’t be in the works for a while until like you said we fill the stands on a consistent basis

we need a statue or something for the players to touch when they run onto the field.

We need 85 guys to take the field and CONSISTENTLY play with discipline, play like their future livelihoods depend on it, study to make the required grades, and otherwise represent the University in a manor worthy to be called a TROY TROJAN. When these things are done, some of these other things will take care of themselves. As George Harrison famously sang, “...its gonna take money, a whole lot of spendin’ money, it’s gonna take plenty of money, to do it right child...”. These things I mentioned will help bring in the money.

we need a statue or something for the players to touch when they run onto the field. OK, although it is in severe contradiction with my religiosity.... I volunteer for the image of the statue. The Players can rub my belly, and it will make all the Universe a better place for all. Thank you for your considerations.

Seeing that photo without the NEZ facility and then with it - WOW! Forgot how much of a difference that made.

we need a statue or something for the players to touch when they run onto the field. Don't say that or might end up with: 1) Statue of Hawkins Or Mrs. Hawkins or both 2) Hawkins puts a tarracota warrior there 3) Statue of Famous Amos 4) I shutter to think about this one.....Hemi in a loin cloth

From what I've heard it will be hand sculpted and will be the artist's greatest creation.

Recent Troy Messenger poll has #3 in a golf cart leading the team onto the field. Unfortunately it would drive through and injure 40 SOTS members lol

Any player touching that upon entry to the playing surface (battle ground) would immediately forfeit his opportunity to win a varsity letter for the year. This forfeiture would NOT be subject to appeal.

This forfeiture would NOT be subject to appeal. I am pretty sure touching would be gross and warrant such a penalty but rubbing maybe a capital offense.😱

I had an idea for a statue. I would like to make a smaller monument, for lack of a better word, of a Trojan shield. I would like to have it placed in Shackleford Quad so it is accessible to all students and athletes. The idea is when you're in class or on the field/court you represent Troy and you should defend your school with honor. I'f like to see players touch it before games and students to touch it before finals. But I have no idea how to make it happen.
