Now let's beat their arses on Basketball...

Speaking of which. Will we finally get a home game with them?

Now that they are back, I wish they were still in the east. Sigh.

Penciled in for 2023, maybe.

now that UAB has football; the heavy lifting needs to occur: bring Pluto back as a planet (I'm looking at you Neil DeGrasse Tyson)

I think they're going to be Idaho's travel partner in the Sun Belt.

Kind of a rocky start back up the road:

I am surprised that the city gives anything at all. Is this normal?
Does ODU receive any support from Norfolk?

At the very least, they offer police support on game day. That's a big commitment for the city.

The additional needed support from the city is to figure out a way to deed Bluestone Ave to ODU if Foreman Field site is the one selected for the new stadium!

ODU got quite a bit of support from the city when the time came to expand the campus across Hampton Blvd. It has been a fruitful partnership.

Or at least collaborate with ODU to straighten it and move it about 50 feet in the direction of the Elizabeth River. Utilities would have to be moved as well. That would give the school the perfect venue for the new stadium. Seems to me it would be in the mutual interest of both parties to do so.
