Blake James spoke to the local media today to promote the opening of the brand new Schwartz Center.

After touching on a range of topics, like that he expects to hear word on our NCAA sanctions soon, he made known his desire for an indoor practice facility and lights for Greentree practice field. This would be the next step in terms of facility upgrades for our football program. See his whole press conference here:

Some people on this thread want a stadium built in or around a city that, up until recently, had a 50 year ban on pick-up trucks. If the people who give the largest sums of money to this University's football program are being directly told it's a pipe dream, I think it's fair to conclude this isn't "only" a fundraising issue.

I remember that pick up truck ban. You couldn't park them on the street. I had one that survived Andrew upside down in the front window of the Target in Country Walk. Moved to the Gables after the hurricane and the ******** towed it. Said trucks were eyesores.

If you think UM doesn't build a stadium because it can't afford a 60 million dollar tab, you don't understand why we don't have a stadium at all.

The tropical Road idea also has a logistics issue, though. That is, that we'd be asked to foot the bill on improving highway access off Miller and 826, among other imporvements. Also, expanding Miller is a no-no since the homes are practically on the sidewalk in that area.
