Memorial Field is a mess these days and that's a good thing. For this photo (courtesy of Dartmouth) and other views, click here.I was able to track down a little more information on the FieldTurf installation at Memorial Field. The surface that will be put down is next generation "reinforced spine" monofilament. I don't know exactly what that means and the FieldTurf site didn't offer much in the way of explanation -- that I could find. Apparently, this particular turf has been installed in only a handful of facilities to date. Two of them are high schools in Mesquite, Texas, where Dartmouth representatives had a chance to inspect the surface. Here's a photo of one of the fields in Mesquite that doesn't give much insight to the field but gives a whole lot of insight to high school football in Texas. ;-)
Another note on the field tomorrow ...
Jay Fiedler is ranked as the second most-desirable quarterback remaining on the free agent market according to this scout.com analysis which concurs that the Giants and Patriots are two of his most ardent suitors.
