I saw a post in another thread that mentioned a removable field turf for the dome in a couple years?
Anyone have any details on this, I think it would be a great needed change in the dome.

New turf would be great... imagine if it were red-might not be too far out for comprehension!

I would request not to have red turf. Easier on the eyes lol. But yeah, this has been talked about for a bit, and I wonder how USD is paying for it. Last year they passed up a chance to have Vermillion high school to pay for it in the contract talks and USD requested a million more. Not smart. Pretty sure that's one of the first things Sayler had on his list.

My vote would be for a green field with a Huge Coyote Paw in the middle of the field.
All for Red Endzones or some color combo there.
Also think that fields that have the yardage numbers in white outlined in Black look really sharp.
We are going to see some really cool things from a facilities standpoint in the next few years. Should be fun.

I want USD to do something different whether it's complete red turf of not. If people don't like the red turf between the goalines I would like to see a solid red in the end zones with a white or black trim. If USD is to do red turf why not instead of having white yard lines and hash marks to have them be black instead just to be different in that way.

I posted this in the Big Sky thread. Plan is to have new field turf next season. The second generation stuff that is removable.
Please, please, no red, or any other crazy crap. Paw in the middle would be cool but then again, logos around here change like underwear.

Spoke with Herbster about logos - he was of the opinion that USD needs to pick two logos that we want to brand and stick with those. We have too many right now. I agree with him and think The University should pick two official logos and live with them and brand all gear with one or the other.

I really hope USD doesn't change their logo and uniforms for a long time. I really like the U paw, and the other Coyote logos. By far the best looking since I have been following the team. The Coyote Uniforms are nice but the helmets are especially nice. OK I know some of you will cringe at this thought but I wouldn't mind the Yotes to wear black pants like once every 2 or 3 years as an alternate. They could wear them home or road. They would need to have some red and maybe white incorporated into them. Maybe a more modern look instead of just a plain stripe down the leg. Either that or just plain black like UND does.
I actually like the red pants better at home with the red tops than I like them on the road with white tops. Maybe I am just off the wall.

It has a modern look to it but also reflects the history of Coyote sports as well. I guess the mean looking Coyote with the full frontal view would be my second choice. That is just at first thought.

Vote for the U Paw without the stupid dot.
I understand the reasoning for UDot, modern, you know, UDot com, U.com but it is really stupid. Just drop the dot, already.

Agreed. The dot is really stupid.

I don't really care one way or another about the U dot. I definately don't want it at the expense of dropping something better though. The U dot may resonate with South Dakotans but outside of South Dakota people are not going to relate to it.

They could use the paw from the mid 90's teams. Creehan had that on brought back from the teams of the 80's. That one looked rock solid.
