Unless we plan on playing night games 90% of the time, where is the shade?

Soon as I saw the concept the FAIL alarm went off for this very reason. Serious rainstorms and serious heat and there is nothing to alleviate either.

It's a complete non-starter for me without something to cover the fans.

While many are excited, as am I, about the conversations around an OCS, the facts are the facts.  The cost is massive and at 40K - 50K seats the stadium would be 2/3 full for home games based on histo

Here's the way I see it: When I go to on-campus college football games... it's unequivocally different than attending a game in an NFL stadium miles from the school. I want an OCS to get that col

That and the seating looks really far from field.

For just a placeholder image, there sure is a lot of b!tching. As it has been mentioned numerous times, this is not finalized design. It is a placeholder to show the rough size of the stadium in the various possible locations.

I imagine there's going to be enough shade thrown at us by UCiF fans to cover us the entire season.

Not sure why there are grumblings on the price tag. This falls between the costs of the two stadiums I see cited on this board as examples that USF should follow: Louisville ($200m) and Minnesota ($300m).

Not overkill IMO; this is what a decent stadium costs. You go cheaper, you end up with the bounce house. At that point, why bother.

Grumbling?  Wait until they get their new season tickets and athletics fees costs.

You mean it's just like the stadium we currently play in?!?

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    "I wish you guys could be in the locker room and be on the practice field because it is so much different from what it has been in the past."
