Is it just me or does it look like somebody forgot to press the Bold button on the "K"?

man it's a great place to be when all we have to nit pick on is the font of coaches letters on his statue spot!!!! :biggrin2:

But to answer your question, yes, the "K" does look a little different!!!! CNS needs to get on to whomever did that and show them that anything less than perfection is unacceptable!!!!!! :biggrin2:
 
Who would have ever thought that the guy who ended our 31 year unbeaten streak in Baton Rouge would one day have a statue in Tuscaloosa!
 
Give UA a break!! We have become way too spoiled the last few years if we have to nitpick every blade of grass!

The circle is the beginning of a work in process. There will be installation of the statue and names of team members. The names of team members are also going to be on the other circles as well, I believe. Once this is done, I am sure they will address the grass issue.

If there is still a problem, perhaps pavers would be a good alternative.
 
I was close to the stadium & decided to take a closer look. I wish I had taken close up pictures. The K is taller than the other letters. There is more space between the I & C than the other letters. There is less space between the SABAN letters than in COACH. Whoever layed it out didn't do a very good job.
 
The "k" is the right font, but it is condensed, not normal style like the rest of the lettering. Since it's sandblasted, they would have to replace that section of stone/block to fix it. Nothing that can't be fixed.
 
It's a bit worrisome that two versions of the statue have been sent back because the face and hair weren't satisfactory, and now, the size of the font - the simplest thing of all - is not right...
 
It's close enough to perfect for me. No one is going to look at the lettering in the back of that ring, everyone will be gazing at the statue.
 
I think this is the reason they had to take the statue back for improvements.

I think it was more of a size issue than anything else. It should look something more like this!

Well, it's not like it's etched in stone or anything!

Oh wait...:PDT_dsv:
