Agreed. It's not a dead in the water (pun intended) issue, but the potential issues and costs would potentially far outweigh the possibility of building there. The golf course, which is about 185 acres, is a great spot and it's basically open land, minus some trees. Plenty of land to work with and build around it. Going off campus just wouldn't feel right. College football should be on campus and students can walk to the stadium. Still makes me laugh at what a joke the Miami program is having to bus to Hard Rock stadium. They should've partnered with the Marlins and played their football games at their stadium considering it's right there next to campus.Moving the stadium further out could certainly kill a bunch of businesses. How low is the land around Lake alice? Just think soil stabilization and all those sinking shands buildings. But I like thT idea.
Definitely landlocked where it is, and heck, half this board will have passed if you bulldozed and waited for a rebuild. ;)
Rebuilding/remodeling the current Swamp would become an absolute logistical and traffic nightmare, not even counting losing tens of thousands of seats in-season while construction occurs. One of my Admin Assistants, who is an FSU grad, keeps telling me that the reason they lost both home games is because of the loss of seats at Doak due to the construction there
