Blake James wants an Indoor Practice Facility

Some people on this thread want a stadium built in or around a city that, up until recently, had a 50 year ban on pick-up trucks. If the people who give the largest sums of money to this University's football program are being directly told it's a pipe dream, I think it's fair to conclude this isn't "only" a fundraising issue.

I remember that pick up truck ban. You couldn't park them on the street. I had one that survived Andrew upside down in the front window of the Target in Country Walk. Moved to the Gables after the hurricane and the ******** towed it. Said trucks were eyesores.

If you think UM doesn't build a stadium because it can't afford a 60 million dollar tab, you don't understand why we don't have a stadium at all.

The tropical Road idea also has a logistics issue, though. That is, that we'd be asked to foot the bill on improving highway access off Miller and 826, among other imporvements. Also, expanding Miller is a no-no since the homes are practically on the sidewalk in that area.
