I'll punch Ross square in his face if he tries to stop us from moving. If the stadium can hold 40-45k I'm for the move!!

Stephen Ross can eat a bag of ****s.

Why it is possible that some of this is true or has merit, people should know by now not to trust any of these writers. Unnamed sources...I wish that actually meant something.

Don't hate the playa, hate the admin that signed this terrible agreement.

I think Prop Joe said that on the wire.

Stupid idea I think.

Where do we tailgate?

 

[Angry Ibis]

Everything is a negotiation.

To Consig's point - any of us could have written the same article on here with no sources or unnamed sources.

At the playoffs if a new stadium helps us keep these sfl boys here.

Where do we tailgate?

In the ******* water.

Party boat tailgating would make UM even more unique. I think this is one of the most badass ideas we've ever had.

I am not a fan of Ross in general, but why should he walk away from a favorable deal? I hope the new stadium works out and that Miami can end up playing there, but how many of your would let someone you made a deal with walk out on it b/c they found something they liked better?

Compromise with Ross and say the big games like FSU, UF, etc. will still be played at Sun Life due to their additional capacity.

There are plenty of ways to work this out and make sense to all the parties. We play either VT or FSU at home every year. We play Notre Dame at home in the future.

The problem is this requires forward thinking, which the admin has not shown the ability to do. This is why there is no plan ON OUR OWN to get out of this stadium and get our own.

Absolutely positively in favor of this and I hope Ross lets us out. 40K would be perfect, and for people that are not familiar with soccer stadiums they're very close to the field so the atmosphere would be insane at those games. It draws parallels to the Duke basketball games at Cameron Indoor where the students can practically touch players. (I'm obviously exaggerating that it would be that close) However close enough where the fans can seriously make an impact and the most promising thing about this is no more games where espn shows our stadium half empty with its skycam. Recruits take notice of things like that.

Doesn't Tennessee already do that?

Nevin Shapiro is obviously Jackson's source

I'm not sure what body of water runs through Knoxville, but I'm sure it doesn't compare to Biscayne Bay.

Great for soccer. But a football field is considerably narrower than the average MLS soccer field. That puts the fans farther away from the field for football.
