 Here the old turf for comparison purposes. |

I like it. Clean with the current logo over the state which is in vogue right now.

Is the resident turf monster going to relocate from the old to the new turf?

Anyone have a brief comparison of the old turf to the new? My recollection is the new turf is more user friendly (maybe except the monster?).

I’ve always wondered how do they ever clean/disinfect field turf? There’s all manner of nasty on that rug!

 This picture was in today's Yankton Press & Dakotan article about the new turf. It shows the underlayment being installed which makes me wonder how or if the turf will be removed for indoor track and field. |

I know with our turf in Rapid City, they periodically spray it with a disinfectant.

Unless there is a surprise construction project to build a new indoor track by December, I have to imagine the turf is removable. |

It looks like the turf will extend further out of bounds and hopefully alleviate some slips from the old open concrete.
The new turf was needed and hopefully the paw is bigger

Not sure what to think of the design until I get in the building. I love the pawprint logo in every other application (it is absolutely perfect on the basketball court), hope it works as the centerpiece on the football field. The lettering in the endzones looks kind of odd in the 2D concept.
Not sure if the state outline does anything for me, but it's faint enough to look past if you don't like it. UNI has the same thing going on and it's easy to ignore.

Jay Elsen is reporting that the faded South Dakota outline didn’t work out, so they scrapped it. Still looks great!

I am not a fan of using the state outlines. I'm a little glad they dropped it. Looks just fine with the simple paw print logo.
That endzone font seems odd though. Very jagged.
