navydawg31 Posted July 16, 2018 Report Posted July 16, 2018 BISD has to get some money back for the new turf and less playoff games will be played there now since 5A 1 and 2 seeds get a home game in bi district. Plus BISD would work with PA about concession stand money back to PA a lot better than LU will. Quote

If Nederland did this, they could pay for turf as well... The Icon 1 Quote

AggiesAreWe Posted July 16, 2018 Report Posted July 16, 2018 I know in the recent past that Lamar doesn't let high schools use their stadium on home weekends. Also they charge more on weekends when they are away because of having to have stadium personnel available when they wouldn't have to. Things may be different now with new AD and HC. Quote

It is a tremendous home field advantage when teams use to turf have to come in & play on grass. I think it is very smart on Nederland's part to keep the field as it is. Whether or not anyone else likes it, they are use to it. Quote

We will see how much of a home field advantage it is come September 7th. Being that it is the only game that the Timberwolves will play on grass this year, they practice on grass everyday...
