It cannot be done for less than 6 IMHO unless you have a bunch of folks doing things at cost. Not happening in today's climate.

Even if its just football only no way would you get a 120 yard facility for 6-7 million. GTs IPF is football only and 70 yards with 1 endzone. And kicking in it could get tricky, the highest point in the facility is 65 feet, total cost 7.1 million (2011).

For a 120 yard facility (100 yards and 2 endzones) with no bells and whistles I would say 9-11 million would be the going rate. And a multi-use would be 12-16 million.

Marshall's IAC was 14.27 million, the academic center will be 1.2 million, the sports medicine facility 3.3 million and hall of fame center will be 2.8 million. The soccer complex was 8.9 million. Which totals 30.47 million.

Marshall's soccer complex is only one of two collegiate socccer stadiums designated by FIFA.
