    New Tech field concept

    I was thinking, with Tech football moving forward to the future it might be time for a new look football field. Colored fields are all the rage these days so I think they should go in that direction. Look what Boise State has done in the last decade. The blue field certainly didn't hurt their national recognition. Tech should do something unique though with theirs so I came up with this two toned design in the traditional blue and red color scheme. When you see this on TV you'll instantly know it's La Tech. Keep in mind this is just a rough draft.

    Tech has a "colored field"...it's green! There are only a small handfull of schools with non-green turf and they are not thought of as anything but jokes! Not the team, but the idea of a football field that is anything other than a shade of green is not regarded that highly. Boise's blue turf has constantly been joked about. Now there is a college out there who has a black and red turf that just looks stupid. If you want to create a concept showing The Joe having a red or blue field, have fun, but expect some backlash from posters on here.

    No...But also I believe there's now a rule against that...With the existing ones (Boise, Eastern Washington, UCA) being grandfathered in.

    When NLULM got their new turf a couple of years ago, I remember that they had to call the engineering dept at Tech to consult on the installation. They didn't know that green side went up!

    Shouldn't it be a rule that you cannot start a thread with negative reputation?

    That should eliminate some of this annoying clucking and chirping.

    That's hard to look at...LOL! I'm old school. Color belongs at mid-field and in the end zones, but the playing field (even if not real) should be the color of grass. Again, that's me...I think other-than-green playing surfaces is just wrong.

    Absolutely incorrect...there has been and will be no restriction on field color.

    But (listen up Boise) the NCAA Football Rules Committee today tentatively passed a new rule to require a team's jersey or pants to be a different color from the color of the field.

    No reason to discuss any field color change at Tech since there won't be any replacement of the turf for at least 4-5 more years. One blue turf field in FBS is enough if not too many, and red turf makes me see and hand out red.

    Again, the Boise situation was complicated by the sideline and endzone walls' blue color . . . which in Tech's last game there had been painted white.
