Ruiz stadium update

Advertisement
On mobile and not sure how to link the tweets but big Ruiz has been tweeting some info about the stadium in the last 25 mins or so. Says design is for 65k and it will have a retractable roof.

I don’t have Twitter, but have been able to share links when available. There should be an arrow at the bottom w/ the words “share this tweet” which will allow u to copy & past to the designation u want.
 
There's a thread on ITU and it has a lot of negativity and pessimism about this.

I agree with you though. That's why I posted earlier a lot of our fans are in for a rude awakening if they think this can't feasibly happen.

HKS is top notch. Ruiz doesn't seem like someone who fcuks around and UM would absolutely move forward with this IMO
Um isn’t gonna say no lol. Donna tried building at tropical park too. The issue has always been the County since they own the land

I just checked. Not a ton, but some key nugs:

Retractable roof.

65k

Was influenced by Baylor a bit (that's a good thing).

Training hill is staying @ TP.

Women's softball is coming. He would like to bring back men’s golf.

Also says softball is coming and he wants mens golf. Not sure what he can do in regards to that. His kid said they modeled the concept after Baylor’s stadium. Which opens up right next a river. Similar to the lake by their proposed stadium.
 
It would be incredible if this happened. I just hope that if there's a lot of parking underneath that they build entertainment space with restaurants and bars so that people can still have some form of tailgating.

Yeah….no way Miami leaves HRS. 😂

Outside stadium, there will be a bar for pre and post game. Similar to Cowboys stadium which has a dope place. Such a great idea.
 
Awesome if it were to happen...think 65K might be too large. Hard Rock is about that, 64,767 and I've seen the Canes sellout less than 5 times since moving there. A replica of the Grandest lady, the OB would be nice. Start with 55 - 57K and have the open-end concept to where you bring in seating bringing seating to 65K for the marquee games.

16k spots will cover well over half the attendees, and it will encourage people to car pool (a very good thing) + students and others shuttling, walking and bike riding from campus, + a lot of people taking public transportation + walkable offsite parking + shuttles to even more offsite parking - it adds up just fine.
Sorry but in today's world you will not get that many people to carpool. They will lose a ton of season ticket holders IMO.

I'm going to go no matter what and I think it's always been the perfect location but to go to a stadium the size of UCF with not enough parking will be a big mistake. This is Miami it's hard enough to get people to go to the games.

If they don’t have the same roof like they do at Hard Rock it’s an epic failure. That roof reverberates all the crowd noise back down to the field and creates a lot of noise and home field advantage. Unfortunately there will never be another Orange Bowl. Which is unfortunate because I try to take advantage and relish every opportunity I can **** in a troff next to a bunch of ****y drunk brethren. Seriously though the OB was one of the best, if not the best, home field advantages in college football. The only comparison that is even close is Hard Rock on a packed game. The 2017 ND and VT games were the first time Miami fans felt the home field advantage that the OB created. If you don’t think that roof had everything to do with that I don’t know what to tell you or what games you ever attended at the OB. **** even empty games that look embarrassing visually, still create enough crowd noise to have a smaller home field advantage. Before they put that roof on not only did light complexted people fry in the sun there wasn’t enough crowd noise to create a home field advantage and stimey the opponent. I am probably flying solo on this but if they don’t replicate or create something similar as the roof at Hard Rock to create that crowd intimidation there is ABSOLUTELY no reason to build our own stadium. Especially since we are on the rise and recruiting like a top 5-7 team, meaning we will start to have sold out to almost sold out home games. If we can do that we will have one of if not the best CFB home field advantages. If we can create a home field advantage like 2017 ND game at Hard Rock then why not embrace that and run with it. Let other programs have their jokes and negative recruiting but when they come there and can’t function like normal because of the home field advantage then who gives a ****. When the recruits attend those games they will experience it first hand and will then discredit anyone trying to negative recruit us because of the stadium. Plus they will have chills when the Miami (somewhat) faithful are cheering so hard the other team looks like they don’t belong in division 1. That 2017 ND game gave us a glorious gift on how amazing of a home field advantage Hard Rock could be. If you don’t think the crowd noise and energy of how electric Hard Rock was that night had anything to do with the *** whoopin that proceeded you are a certified nut bag. Notre Dame, yet over rated as per usual, was still a much better team then us all around. That metric didn’t mean a GD thing though once the Canes faithful turned Hard Rock stadium into the Roman Coliseum!!!!! All I am saying is a stadium closer to campus would be awesome. As long as you consider a few things. First it will never replace the Orange Bowl…..EVER!!!!!! Nothing will, not even Hard Rock. If they can’t make it into a futuristic state of the art venue that has an amazing recruiting section along with the aforementioned roof we should seriously consider staying put. We are about to be winning and filling the stadium and having a raucous home field advantage.

BRING IT ON!!!
LFG!!!!
& most importantly
15-0 @Go Canes!!
It’s a MUTHA****IN lifestyle bro!!!
No you're not. I go to the games with a giant UM Alum group and they all say the same thing. Hard Rock is Perfect!

But if they can build an amazing stadium with a roof at Tropical Park it's a win win. Yes that roof needs to be replicated. I'm just afraid we're going to have the smallest stadium in the Power 5. That would be pathetic.
