(free)Notre Dame announced in a release that an interlocking ND at midfield and small green shamrocks at the 35-yard lines will be added. The diagonal lines in the end zones will stay the same.
From ND's release:
NOTRE DAME, Ind. - The University of Notre Dame's new FieldTurf surface at Notre Dame Stadium will be put in place in the next few weeks, and a strong sense of history will permeate the look of the field and its markings.
The football field itself will include the traditional diagonal striping in both end zones. There will be 18 lines (nine in each end zone), and they will be oriented at 42-degree angles toward the Basilica and the Golden Dome. The numbers 18 and 42 represent 1842, the year the University was founded.
There will be a traditional interlocking ND logo at midfield, and the 35-yard-line marks for kickoffs will include small green shamrocks.
"The interlocking ND is the most recognized symbol of our University and its athletics programs, and we wanted to communicate that to our fans and all those viewing our home games on NBC," said Notre Dame vice president and athletics director Jack Swarbrick.
"The integration of the shamrocks allows us to achieve consistency across all of our new or recently renovated facilities where both the interlocking ND and a shamrock have a presence on the playing surface.
"While being careful to maintain the look and feel of the original Rockne bowl, we are using this opportunity to make sure that every visual element of the field is carefully considered and helps to celebrate our University and its rich traditions.
"Examples of the latter will include a reworking of the planters along the sidelines to include Irish coastal grasses with the mum plantings, as well as the application of appropriate color pantones and theming to sideline equipment, pylons and yard markers."
The turf field is expected to be delivered next week and installation will begin shortly thereafter.

One less slash mark in each end zone than in the past.

I'm on my phone, but I like it besides the shamrocks. I feel like they're too small. I wonder if it'd look better with one, larger shamrock off centered at one of the 35 yard lines, or simply without.

Ok, it's been over 12 hours. I'll take the bait.
What announcement? Is there a scheduled date? or do we just gotta wait around and it happens when it happens?

Haha I just texted him, said the stadium tour guide specifically showed them a mockup of the new field. Who knows, maybe they hadn't decided yet, maybe he's fucking with me. Regardless fuck OSU and I'm glad ND is keeping the lines hahaLooks like your buddy was jerking you around.
Typical OSU fan
