Instead of starting a new thread.  I was reading this today.  Please God NOOOOOOO!!!!!

The University of South Florida’s Forest Preserve and golf course could turn into restaurants, apartments, hotels, research hubs or a football stadium, if developers have their way.

The university on Friday posted the responses it received to a controversial request for how the 769-acre tract might be put to commercial use to generate revenue. The land, just north of the Tampa campus, currently serves as an outdoor classroom for teaching and research. It includes federally protected wetlands, indigenous burial sites and endangered species.

I say go for it, I wonder how many of my golf balls will be found when they start digging.  I used to spray my shots all over that place, not sure I ever found a fairway.

To me one of the only real advantages for us to build an ocs is the effect on students' access to having one right in their midst. This one would still be a Bull Runner ride away, just shorter one. That plus the afore mentioned NABG ......... hard pass,

Agree. Doubt it happens. I think best location still is where the band practices south of SunDome
