I actually hope this happens. Perhaps it would spur Tulane to better their program and build an on campus stadium. That will only help the city and state.

While it might be good for Tulane students to play on campus, parking would be a nightmare and I'm not sure the neighborhood would like it very much. There's no room for it on Tulane's campus (yeah, I know the 80k seat Tulane Stadium used to be on their campus where Brown Field is now). Maybe if you bulldozed a few blocks on the other side of Claiborne you could make enough room for a 40k-50k stadium and enough parking with garages. But the state or city isn't going to spend one nickel to build Tulane a stadium.

Nothing wrong with the Dome other than Tulane has no fanbase and can't fill it.
