What do you think of the stadium design? - Lurking Dog - 03-03-2007 01:41 PM
...now on CU website...

I wish we had some more specs and some more drawings but this one drawing looks pretty nice to me.

Yeah, I'd like to see more pics, too. It looks good and appears to be somewhat of a "bowl". Also, looks like it's about the size of Davidson's stadium.

The article stated there will be seating for 1200 in the first season. Looking at the artist's rendering, will that be just the lower sections on either side? What is the proposed seating capacity of the completed stadium?
Where will the practice field be located?

The Stadium design looks nice, but I am concerned that our new football stadium will become the next "Carter Gym." We need to get real about our athletic programs and make sure we are not building an inferior stadium from the start. Hopefully the additional seating and various improvements will be made sooner than later.

I agree Professor and moreover the "real" should have started with the football program itself and gone to a scholarship program from its inception. A good model to review would have been the approach that Old Dominion University is using for their football come back which has been about as long ago as Campbell's.

Agreed! Campbell needs to understand the importance of sports as a marketing tool for the college. Would it be fair to say that some schools (like Wake Forest) might not be as popular if it were not for their athletic programs? You are correct andone, we should have been Division I - scholarship!
