If Kyle Field and it's surrounding area is supposed to promote a family-friendly environment, why did they put up a statue of a yell leader in the midst of his vinegar strokes?

"Was" is the operative word.

The ugly statements that are being made about the students that modeled for the statue are uncalled for. The beauty of anonymity on the internet.
You do realize the actual statue (intentionally) looks little like the students who did the modeling right?

I am not a fan of the possessed yell leader or the parade of homely students. I did like the band statue.

Dude on the far left is probably OK with the comments about the flashlight in his pocket.

I'm assuming you have never seen the movie "Cocoon". It's not a great movie...just a movie about old people and aliens. If you haven't seen it, I don't think it's worth seeing it now :-) The yell leader fits in with the old people.

This.

I bet it was Sharp's idea. It's about as dumb as his 12 empty seat idea.

It's like we have a small contingent of people working against the much needed cool factor brought to us by KDS

I bet the favorite movie of everyone on the decision-making committee is "Cocoon".

Who makes these decisions and who will make the decision for the possibility of more? Why take a $420 million stadium and detract from it with these? NOT well done. IF they had to have statues, they should've been a much larger search to get someone better to sculpt them. And MOVE the original 12th Man statue back to Kyle Field and NOT by Rudder Fountain.

News Flash: Taste is not a factor of age. These statues are not a result of the age of the decision makers...only of their taste in...um...art.

When you "youngs" stop making the Kardashians rich only then come lecture us on taste.
