It is my understanding that in the next month or so, they will be replacing the turf at Jayne Stadium. Apparently they have had lots of issues with the
current turf.

I believe it will be the synthetic turf that is made by Astroturf, which should be nice. The old turf will be used by some other venues, such as in the batting
cages at softball and for the golf driving ranges. There is a lot of it so it should be able to be recycled nicely.

Looking forward to seeing the new design on the field. Any idea's which version of the logo they're gonna use at midfield?

No word on which logo will be used yet. It is good that the lines are inlaid rather than painted. The soccer line faded over time on the old turf. I should
look very nice.

The new turf is in and the installation has started. When I drove by about 5:45 p.m. they had a few strips on the north end by the baseball field down.

Yep. I'm going to go work at Xavier. Now when I come to MSU games I can do so as a fan.

And you can post as a fan again. Congrats on the new job. Hate to see you leaving MSU though. I'm available if they need me.
