New Stadium

[Badbart43]

I see this pop up from time to time, where certain influential past players talk about having an on campus stadium or converting Tropical Park. I don't live there so it is hard to know what is really a possibility. Do we really have no room for a stadium on campus? Is Tropical Park a possibility?

No. No.

One thing you can always count on with CIS is a new stadium thread popping up every couple of months.

No chance.

 

[Badbart43]

Is it a logistical problem or a political problem. I look on Google maps at Tropical Park and it looks like it would work real well. But, again, I dont live there so I don't know the area.

The new stadium talk will never make sense. We play in a state of the art nfl stadium in between Broward and Dade county. Location is perfect. And I like staying dry during rainstorms and eating arepas while choosing which gigantic tv I want to watch the replay on.

Hard Rock is a mad house when we're good and playing well.

 

[Go Canes!!]

Never, ever going to happen.

Nor should it.

players notified?

Hardrock is one of the best stadiums in the country. No need for another stadium, if we have some consistent success the rock would be scary.

I agree but stadium too big. Looks crazy to see all those empty seats for most games. Need an OB replica with about 45k seats.

When was the last time they played the a national championship or superbowl at doak or the swamp?

It's both. The city of Coral Gables has not allowed the university to either expand campus or build an off-campus stadium for as long as I've been alive. Even if we did have an on-campus stadium, there's no way to get people in and out of there with the way that area is constructed. Traffic is already a nightmare around 5pm, I couldn't even imagine what it would be like after a game.

Hard Rock is our best bet right now. Compete and fans will have that place packed every week.

I miss the OB it was magical.

Tropical Park is out because of some fawk ing Christmas light display they do every year.

So what about Marlins Park? That ground is stall hallow ground, right?
