New year, old plans: USF’s aspirations to build on-campus stadium over the years

The idea of an on-campus stadium is not news for...

Hoping for that research park location near Botanical gardens. That area around the corner of Bruce B Downs and Fowler already has the infrastructure for some really cool bars and restaurants to open within walking distance. Plus the district replacing the University Mall should be completed by then. The Yuengling Brewery is only about a half mile from that location too, would be cool if they setup some pregame deals.

Really would just give a much needed face lift to the area around campus

The only thing I took from this article is that Timur Kalandarov is a wet blanket.

It doesn't make much sense to have the OCS so far from the rest of Athletics

I agree.  I am hoping we aren't sending me to University Mall.

The team could walk across campus as a pregame tradition

That's a long walk.... about a mile.  Would need to be transported.  If it were on the southeast side not too bad...I know there is a lot of complaining on this board, but it is shocking to me that we don't have an ideal spot for this.  When I have inquired in the past I was told "we have one".  I'm guessing there has been too much disagreement to reserve significant space where it most makes sense.

what odds, size bet, etc. would you be willing to engage in 'for' OCS as a reality during this decade?

Its  prettier location but I agree...Fowler fields area be the better location with all the parking in the area and more visible off Fowler.

Anything over a 20% chance feels optimistic until there's more details
