    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Yeah, only since 2020. Before that, they were in Sam Boyd Stadium for 49 years, though it was not "on-campus" (like the Thomas & Mack Center is), but was owned by/run by UNLV, much as USC operates the Coliseum.

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    So can you list all the "college teams in NFL markets that play in NFL stadiums"? Buffalo Bulls - UB Stadium (not NFL) Miami Hurricanes - yeah, we know about that one Boston College - Alumni Stadium I'mma say...Rutgers...(NY/NJ Metro) - SHI Stadium (not NFL) Navy (Baltimore) - Navy-Marine Corps...

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Yes sir, that is correct. However, since those things were built, a lot has happened. There was a recent article talking about how Elon Musk's "The Boring Company" ("boring" as in digging, not as in "puts you to sleep) is proposing to do work for numerous Florida cities. Between actual...

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Where are those pictures of the Superdome during Katrina? For the record, the Superdome is mediocre, and I've been there many times. "Hosting big events" doesn't turn a stadium into "state of the art". The Rose Bowl, the old Cotton Bowl, and, ****, the OLD Orange Bowl all hosted big events.

    Almost as long as our grant-of-rights deal, and not quite as long as our adidas deal...

    They will. Timing is important. You do realize Alonzo is on Ruiz's committee, right?

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Not factually incorrect, but by that measure, the Orange Bowl wasn't "our own" either. But it sure felt like it...

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Uhhhh... 60K Tropical Park capacity compared to...64,767 for football at Hard Rock? Seems like a minor complaint, no?

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Had to laugh at this. Hard Rock was built in the 1980s. It isn't "state of the anything", let alone state of the art. It's nice, but let's not lose our sanity here. Has Hard Rock continued to pump hundreds of millions of dollars into fixing a flawed-from-the-outset stadium? Sure. Hard Rock...

    You know, the Mas Brothers have an entire business predicated on digging... I trust them.

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Venetian doesn't have enough parking currently, so this actually fixes a lot of problems all at once.

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    You act as if the tunnels under Disney World's Magic Kingdom are underground. They are not.

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Or so we said for 20 years... It also takes hiring the right people. And spending the money. And tearing down some buildings so that you can build new ones. That's not an exaggeration, that is actually what is happening at UM right now. I do realize and respect that Tropical is not "ours"...

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    The "literal heart of the city"? Give the exaggerations a rest. This is west of the Palmetto, which would be considered "outside the beltway" if Miami wasn't a waterfront city. Look at where the Braves built their new baseball stadium, and this is comparable (locationally).

    Ruiz Stadium update?

    Simple solution. Plow the UHealth profits into the acquisition of every house on either side of Blue Road between Riviera Country Club and the Palmetto, plus the houses on San Amaro between Blue Road and campus. On-campus stadium. Problem solved.
