Uni’s Field

[El Simbolo]

hadn’t seen their new turf until on TV today. Those shades of green/brown are awful !

Dude, if you're gonna start a thread around a visual... you have to post a pic or link.

 

[CoorsHawk23]

Agreed. I played in some bad indoor soccer facility growing up and that is what I thought of. Did they get it used ? wow

 

[hawkssox1]

Ask all the kids that get a chance to play indoors instead of outside today what they think of it?Good God.

This tweet exquisitely illustrates how delusional the UNI fan base is.

Is it supposed to represent the green and brown color of crop fields in different seasons???

 

[El Simbolo]

I wonder if someone approved color samples under different lighting conditions? Maybe with better lighting temperature it would look better, because their initial rendering is way better

Looks like they fertilized in some areas and not others.

On a serious note...talked to someone who played against UNI a few weeks ago...said they couldn’t believe how spongy it was at midfield (logo area) and in the end zones. Said it was noticeable when they were running.

Less is more. They over did it.

You want some whine with your cheese?

Should have matched the field stripe colors with the stands stripes!

What's strange is that the turf is all slanted one direction. When you walk on it, you can feel your foot fall slightly to the side with every single step. It's bizarre.

For drainage

Why don't all you bitcher's ask the ones that actually play on the field what they think?

What kind of cheese?

 

[ANYCHawk]

I think the bigger issue is the North Korea designed scheme for the stands

Done, turf is way better than the old turf, had to change the cleats used, slicker on the logos, more forgiving on hard plants, hope that it 'settles down' more. And that it is ugly.
Does that help?

Better than the belly cheese I found this morning when I woke up.
