Crazy for a new weight room up to standards. crazy for enough space for a football operations building. Crazy for new coaches offices. and finally, I must be crazy for thinking that an architect could design a beautiful building with a beautiful entrance to the stadium and still achieve all of this! Damn what was I thinking? I’m musty CRAZY!
You are not thinking college campus, greenspace ground level beauty, Not cluttered with buildings. Other areas to give coach what he wants.
F--K greenspace ground level beauty.

These people are clueless. No wonder no school in the conference likes them. Give the Big12 a couple of years of UCF fans, and they'll really wish they had taken us instead.


UCF is a juco. Let me whine.

is this why the press box side looks like a high school stadium? have always wondered...
Yes. The original renderings / plans for the stadium had a wraparound 2nd deck on the west side with decks on either corner to mirror the east side. Alas :/

That shows the home side on the West. They really caved in from the NIMBY’s.
Still single deck one side. The Glazer Club would have been better on that top deck. The roof awning looks nice though and would have helped for shade.
