That article makes it sound like a potential death trap that might be fixed over the course of 4 years.

You guys are crazy.  The stadium isn't dangerous, they are suing for future repair money.  Repairs happen every year to every stadium.  I would still take their situation over a rental any day.  I don

Have you been to a game at UCF during the last 2 seasons with the upgrades?   It's actually a comfortable place to watch a game with more spacious concourses compared to the other college st

UCF spokesmen sure are great at explaining away life-threatening/ending events on their campus ...

All of the "bouncing" is very beneficial to the structural integrity.

Turns out it's a positive that it's been half empty every game this year.

Hey Golden Knights, such it.  You have a stadium that is going to collapse eventually.

This is a pretty big **** up by the engineers....

In September, the school sued contractors and architects who built the stadium during an 18-month period that was compressed to meet the fall 2007 season.

Wow.  Agree with this.  The game could be a complete sell out and unsafe for that many people.  Irresponsible for Hitt not to move the game given what they know.  If it collapses, we state taxpayers would have to pay out a huge lawsuit claim on their behalf.  I'd be very surprised if the Board of Governors do not step in on this one if Hitt doesn't propose moving the game.

They can play it as a UCF home game at Ray Jay!

However I agree about moving it. There is a known danger and the infrastructure has been judged as failing. It's a lawyer's dream.

  • 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."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
