Saw this tweet from EWU.

I don't know if this is a hint that EWU is considering going back to green turf when it's replaced. Is the "challenge" met? It's interesting to see they have a poll asking what the fans think on twitter...and the results so far favor green.

But, as the die-hards, what do you guys think? Has the Red served it's purpose, and now it's time to go back to traditional green?

Why is there a poll??? Montana fans must be lightening that poll up :-(

Looking at the twitter poll, I think it's mostly followers of EWU football.

I have my opinion, but I thought it would be interesting to see what the forum thinks.
 
This is just about all the people on instagram posting pictures of what they looked like 10 years ago and what they look like now. No need to worry, they're not suggesting it goes green. https://www.wired.com/story/facebook-10-year-meme-challenge/

Yep you are right...I totally forgot about that trend right now.

RED IS THE NEW GREEN!!!!!
 
Two trips to the Natty on that stuff and it should have been 5 trips. People all around the country know where Cheney is now. The Red Turf plays a huge part in that. It's not even a good debate in my opinion. This is coming from somebody that didn't even like it at first. I can't imagine our field without the Red now.

go eags!

Ah! That is it. That clears it up. I was wondering how in the world they would ever consider going back to green turf! It's such a part of our brand.
 
In person the Red field is awesome. Easy to see the game, I think the ball really pops in contrast. On TV however, it's almost always super saturated and the glare can be annoying, especially to non-EWU fans. It's up to Eastern's media people to make sure the broadcast is better than it's been IMO.

That said, can't imagine Eastern's tremendous run the past 10 years without it. Keep the home fire burning Eags. #ProtectTheRed #Inferno

It is all about our red turf!! We should be grandfathered in!!!!
Why be grandfathered in?
FYI any school can use any color turf they want as long as the lines are white!
