Coach looks like he's ready for gameday! He's pumped

He mentioned new BJCC stadium rumors with a smile.

Ingram got choked up.

Said we should hear something "real soon".

I'd rather hear about our own facilities to further prove permanence

+1 - even the turf to practice field that was paid for by booster & then denied would be a step in the right direction

Any details on this?

How was attendance?

He's meeting with business leaders. Maybe there is finally a push to break ground at the BJCC. He did say today "there's history at Legion Field, we showed we loved it, but we're moving on." That seems pretty confident. Hope he's right.

Not horrible for 4:30 on a weekday.

Couple hundred ... filled up the little Plaza in The Campus Green. I had another 250 watching on my Periscope feed.

I could live with a BJCC stadium.

Having beer for sale at the stadium will help a lot for attendance in this city as well.

I would love the OCS, but moving ahead on a sure thing at BJCC is better than the status quo. I'm ready to get it done.

Hope it's not 75,000 and we're playing at home like Ga State

THIS

We've become a beer city. Fans would jump all over a cheap ticket to watch good football and have great local beer. There is no doubt in my mind it would surpass Region Field's success.

I've been told bjcc was planning on an open air 40-45k seat stadium and an indoor convention space that can seat enough to host post season NCAA basketball.

I can live with that. Not ideal, but better than a 75,000 seat indoor stadium and definitely better than nothing. Hope it can be arranged in a way that we can have real tailgating.

That's very disappointing to me

I just look at it this way. 8 months ago we were denied the right to let someone donate a turf field at a substandard practice field. Now we're looking at a first class practice facility in the making and we're on the way to a new stadium. I still have trouble wrapping my head around the last year
