Per the T-U, it sounds like we definitely won't be seeing the ampitheater and practice field this season.

QuoteNot included in the bustle of activity around the stadium is construction on an amphitheater and indoor practice facility (called a "flex-field" by the Jaguars) outside the south end zone.

"We're still in the design phase," Johnson said. "We're getting toward the tail end of that, but it's too early to [announce] a construction timeline. I would expect you will start to see work [starting] this year."

At the state of the franchise they said this as well. Not shocking.

Designing and building the amphitheater and practice field in 7 months would be rather sporty.

I must have missed this.

When the deal was approved, all reports were that the practice facility and amphitheater would have a very quick turnaround, with construction completed by end of July.

The only thing promised for the 2016 season was the club renovations.

From Jaguars.com when the deal was announced:

QuoteCompletion of the club renovations is expected prior to the Jaguars' first home preseason game in 2016. It is anticipated that the amphitheater and flex field will be completed in early fall.

Regarding the club seat reductions, have they figured out how to meet the FL/GA minimum seat requirements? And are the Jags paying for the temp seats, since they are the ones reducing capacity?

New to me I guess... I'd never seen #4,5 or 7 before.

Yeah, that one (#4?) showing the linkage between the endzone and the amphitheater is definitely new to me.

heights unknown, that's one of the exciting developments with this project -- it appears the amphitheater will not only be covered but will also become connected to EverBank Field.

Really creative, really exciting. It will be interesting to see once the ACTUAL plans are finally revealed.

They were revealed.

They didn't live up to the concepts that sold you, hook line and sinker.

Isn't the amphitheater still covered and connected to Everbank?
