Mandatory OCS picture... Orange Bowl on USF campus, to scale.

Not that they would actually do it, but this pic gave me a thought - they COULD open up the track and field stadium as a tailgating area.

 

 

 

Can someone tell me why we cant use the lower left corner of this picture for a stadium???

Its huge and empty

 

 

it's reserved for the tech companies.  i forget the actual rule/name, but that's why it's never included in the master plan updates.  not sure about the beackground to that rule, though.  can anyone fill in more info?

Good evening everyone. I know everyone has talked about having an on campus stadium, and everyone has their take as to where it should be, how to build it, etc. That's fine. I'm just bringing some fac

Dual use with a baseball team?  No thanks on that one.     Go Bulls!

Unless a huge donor steps up quickly, there's no way they build anything decent in time to for the 2017 season .... and I always thought, all things considered, the lease we had was pretty good.

Besides, can you IMAGINE how many people would get tossed into the lake on gameday?

Stadiums bring lots of issues. Look at the naming rights fiasco for FAU. First they wanted $1 mil/year. Then they dropped it and a few years later they finally got half that. And who is it with? A corporation THAT BUILDS AND RUNS PRISONS! LOL These are private prisons in the US and other countries so I guess their commercials probably involve someone getting waterboarding and safe ways to pick up soap that's been dropped in the shower. Just saying, leasing cuts out a lot of headaches and problems.

Not every school does the naming rights deal. We may have to, but even so I think we can do better than FAU. If UCF can get Bright house there is no reason we couldn't do as well- there are plenty of quality companies in Tampa. would love to find a reason to sell the rights to Lee Roy selmon's restaurant chain.

If you're in Atlanta, check out Miller's Ale House for watching USF games!

Well can it be UN-reserved? It's been sitting there for YEARS untouched. USF owns a huge stretch of property right across the street from that lower left corner as well. If you want to see the stadium from 275, you put it in that lower left corner.

    "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
