Ahhh, back when we actually had the six flags of Texas flying over the stadium... although, apparently all the flags hadn't yet been delivered by the time this pic was taken...

I never was a fan of renaming the stadium DKR... No need to put one man's name above the many that died in WWI. A statue yes, renaming the stadium, no.

 

 

Isn’t the ‘Memorial’ part now specific to anyone who died in combat, regardless of when? I fully realize that it was originally dedicated to casualties during WW1, but at some point prior to adding DKR’s name didn’t that change ‘officially’?

Another major project is starting on the Forty Acres.

Thank goodness.. I'd heard the term "reimagine" used when discussing restoration and I had no idea what that meant... Glad to know it's basically just facelifting an otherwise perfect-as-it-is iconic building. They better not pave over the bullet holes in the observation deck....

It is.. and not just when, but any American, not just Texan. It was done to satisfy those who didn't want one man's name on the stadium.

Not football but this thread seems appropriate.

Those 6 flagpoles were originally were what the original West Side stadium lights were hung on when there was no West Side upper deck yet, and were recycled and refurbished when the West Side upper deck was built to be those 6 flagpoles.

The first word I read on this graphic was "Decluttering" and knew it had to be a youngin that wrote that graphic.

The Athletes should have to live in Jester for ever.

Why dont we just have them play at the Moody center. Seemed wildly successful for the Stanford game.

UT probably does not get enough time in the Moody Center.  Someone else paid for it and UT is only guaranteed a certain number of dates.  I think Texas gets about 60 days a year.

Plus it gives UT and Austin a second smaller site for shows.

That place is going to be nicknamed The Fuck House.  It's going to be Olympic village level fucking.  We're playing the long game, getting the next generation of UT athletes going early.  What fucks here changes the world!

I'll just stick with Emma's room. 😁

Thought this bump was going to be about going back to natural grass at DKR, that is happening this year, right?

I believe 2026 was the year mentioned by CDC in the past.

As in, return to grass in 2026, so Fall of 2026 = next season! Somehow I'm guessing you mean after the 26/27 season concludes which means natural grass in Fall 2027 😭
