Looks like the track that they have now.

it looks nothing like the track we have now. The track has one side of metal bleachers and nothing else. If you are talking architectural style, then yes, I suppose so. They wanted to build it so that it blended in with the rest of campus, especially the research institute since that is where it will be located.

It likely will be similar to Elon's Rhodes Stadium, which is a very nice facility.

Also....the renderings for the 40,000 seat stadium that it will expand into are VERY IMPRESSIVE

My comment wasn't meant as a slight on UNCC or Elon. Rhodes Stadium would be a good model and a good starting point.

PS- I'm not an Elon guy, I'm just sayin'

You are correct Elon's stadium is very nice. This one looks similar. That is definitely the way to go.

I think this is remarkable! It is consistent with the campus architecture, and has the option to expand if we go to the FBS one day.

I can't wait to plop myself down in one of those seats!

I am not concerned with the stadium renderings. I would sit in a lounge chair to watch a Charlotte football game!

It's amazing what an Architecture student can do with Sketchup.

For "athletics" its University of North Carolina at Charlotte. What an incredibly strong wonderful great sounding original one of a kind name that is.

Or the standard abbreviation, UNCC or UNC-Charlotte.

This is will never change in a million years in spite of the frivilous attempt at the cheap PR gimmick abbreviation that really makes the school sound cheapo or copycatish.

NC football is lame. Get Chapel Hill up and running before Charlotte embarrasses the state even more.
