This would be great.  Hopefully they make it a soccer/lacrosse stadium.  It would add additional value if the ACC needed to add someone.

I wouldn't expect it to be for LAX.

Unless we dump some other sports, you won't see that happen.

I think it's interesting that they're moving the Muma center 30ft south of the dome, instead of putting it right up against the dome, but it's nice to know that they're thinking pro-actively about the future, and renovating the dome.

Awesome.

The soccer team is by FAR our best team in the NCAA. They deserve it.

I think they realize they will probably have to start over with a new arena than renovate the Sun Dome.  Smart move by USF's part.

The Big East plays LAX and USF could add it as long as they add a Men's and Women's team due to Title IX.  As always though it comes down to $$$$$$.

Right... and given the soccer stadium will not have a track, they could  use it for LAX as well as Soccer.  A LAX field is the same width, but 10 yards longer.

Not anytime in the next couple of years, but they realize it is going to cost 20+ mill to renovate and they can probably build one for 40mill.  All of this depends upon me becoming a billionaire in the next couple months  :  They would be screwing themselves if they attached it and ended up getting the money to build a new arena.

Hey, if you can build a new basketball arena for $40-million, I'd give USF a call -- I think you'd have a customer at that price.

Very good news about the new soccer stadium! Also a very good recruiting class coming in! I'm expecting the USF soccer team to be ranked when the season starts as usual. Are there any links with what the new soccer stadium would look like?
