RE: OT: Miami and the local MLS team might share a new stadium

Nova was going to play in an 18K stadium that could possibly be expanded in phases to 26 or 30K, if the primary tenant agreed. Nova wouldn't have contributed anything to the expansion, and would have been at the mercy of the soccer team for the expansion to happen.
Have they started any expansion of the soccer stadium yet? That should tell you about Nova's plan.
If the Miami plan was accurate, then it would have been starting out at 40 to 45 K. that's a huge difference.
I believe that Villanova didn't want to upgrade football, knew the stadium was an insurmountable issue (couldn't play on campus, Temple had LFF, Franklin Field and the Soccer stadium weren't valid alternatives), and went through the study as an effort to keep the Big East together, FWIW.
