New Turf x Montana Knife Company

[StumptownGriz]

Felt like we desperately needed new turf. Going down on the field last year in the playoffs it seemed to be worn out really bad. Found this interesting considering the MKC owner is a Cat fan.

Grizzly Athletics names Montana Knife Company an official partner of Griz Football and on-field logo sponsor at Washington-Grizzly Stadium - University of Montana Athletics

MISSOULA - The playing surface at Washington-Grizzly Stadium will receive a replacement and upgrade this summer that will see Missoula's own Montana Knife Co...

If you look at the mockup, they added white around the midfield logo (for the first time?)

I love the "Up With Montana" on the home side and the "Down With The Foe" on the visitors side.

Seems like just a few years ago we got new turf but it's somehow been 10 years already.

Strange since the owner of MKC is a Bobcat fan.

MKC headquarters is in Missoula

Looks great and much needed. Great partnership with a local company with world wide connections.

It's very difficult to improve The MECCA, but they just did so.

Until we get a silver field with maroon stripes and numbers, i don't care.

Oh, please. We know you won't be happy until "Roll Griz" is painted all over that stadium.

There is still plenty of room for improvement. It's actually pretty dated in a lot of areas.

I’m anti corporate logos on athletic fields, but this choice of Company and the application of it is as good as it gets( looks great).

If someone could please use AI to generate this for me, i'd be forever in debt to you. A big Roll Griz from the 20 to the 20 please.

As of today, the old turf is torn out.

Hate to break it to you but that ship sailed......seems like in 1492.

Very impressive

Friggin' love it.

Bring the boys out in those helmets designed by ADOK.

Gonna be a great season.

So is MKC paying a portion of the field costs for the logo?

Strange since the owner of MKC is a Bobcat fan.

Very humble and generous words for a scat fan.

"Montana has always been home for us, so partnering with the University of Montana in a bigger way felt like a natural fit. Grizzly Athletics brings people together across the state, and we're honored to support that tradition through this eight-year commitment. We're excited to see the MKC brand on the field and even more excited to invest in the future of Montana athletics," said Josh Smith, founder of Montana Knife Company.

Wish they would replace the bear at midfield with the Griz script
