LAWRENCE, Kan. — KU Athletic Director Travis Goff said in a meeting with local media in Lawrence Thursday that the intent is to have the first phase of renovations done at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium in time for a week zero opener for the Jayhawks against Fresno State on August 23, 2025.

The first phase, a $450 million project, will be completed in twelve and a half months, with the second phase happening with KU playing at their home stadium in 2025.

Also Allen Fieldhouse is being renovated and capacity will actually go down to 15,300, with the top corners seeing seating reduction.

The Allen Fieldhouse renovations are slated to be completed in early October, before the unveiling to the fans at Late Night in the Phog on October 18th.
