they can't. the two most vocal people arguing for it on this thread have both said they don't have ideas of where it could go but someone else should figure that out. i'm with you. i dream about the canes having a place to call home where real revenue is actually made and traditions can be...

all you have to do is follow the beckham project to see why this will never happen for us. they came up with multiple sites and have been given the runaround or been outright stonewalled for years. and this is for a 20k seat stadium with a soccer training ground and all sorts of other...

everyone understands the business side of it and how important it is to control your own destiny, but anyone with a half-functioning brain knows that unless a massive chunk of blank real estate pops up in the middle of a dense city, there is nowhere to put one. again, what is your solution...

the harsh reality is, yeah. if for whatever reason something happens that prevents us from using hard rock or whatever future nfl stadium pops up, we're in a tough spot. you're also putting the cart before the horse here. we may have deep pocketed donors that want to spend, but we can't have a...

all of the potential solution sites have been beaten to death. unless you want a stadium further away than the current one, it isn't in the cards. the "orange bowl situation" was financially worse for the university than the current situation is, and at the very least hard rock has an owner that...

that would be absolutely retarded.

where would you suggest putting it? it can't go on campus because a) there's no room and b) coral gables leadership would burn down its own neighborhoods before allowing a stadium to be built.

we're on the same page, amigo.

it'll never happen because the league would scatter the dolphins to the wind before that was allowed to happen, but it's somehow more realistic than building a stadium ourselves. basically an ice cube's chance in **** over a snowball's.

that would be absolutely incredible and i'm all for it.

agreed on all points. there isn't anywhere to put a stadium so i'm not sure why people keep bringing it up like it's a possibility. my "will never happen outside of my wet dreams" scenario is ruiz buying the marlins, wrecking the stadium to build a new orange bowl, and selling the marlins to...

right, and that's why the stadium plan isn't really feasible. tropical park is the ideal location that will never happen. the next best plot is already earmarked for beckham and the mls stadium. i'm not sure where else we could put one that solves proximity, infrastructure, and ownership issues...

right, it's in unincorporated miami-dade. that doesn't change the issue.

there is one site that would solve our proximity issues and have feasible highway access, and that's tropical park. problem is that it's the county's land and it would cost an insane amount of money to bring the roads, water, sewer, and electricity needs up to speed for a modern stadium. unless...

lurks for almost 6 years to post this. you know what the issue with melreese is right?

infrastructure improvements for traffic alone would be in the billions.

taking away the intramural fields is a non-starter. between club sports and intramurals they're used very often, plus it's good to have open recreational space for students to use (it's a college after all). plus, the university is already planning on putting a road that cuts across the side...
