That seems like an awful lot of work for a training camp setup. You think it would be easier somewhere else that is already set up for this type of thing.

I hope the put up a fence around the field. I don't want one of our players falling down that hill and breaking/tearing something.

True to his word, Justice jumped through a $25 million hoop, securing a three-project tax credit through the West Virginia Tourism Development Act. The tax credit allowed him to invest that money in the sports training facility and realize his dream of attracting an NFL franchise. One of the other projects is the adjacent $250 million Greenbrier Medical Institute, the centerpiece of which is world-renowned orthopedic surgeon James Andrews.

Justice said the entire state, including its governor and politicians, are "all in" and ecstatic about hosting the Saints.


We are not doing squat. The owner of Greenbrier is.
Plus our FO is very familiar with moving camp to other places.
As long as Justice does his part all will be good and Paddy will send us reports. His job is secondary

Does this mean Dr Andrews is relocating from B'Ham?

They just had the PGA tournament there last week and the new facilities and the Saints got some good publicity out of it with the blimp flying over taking pictures of it. The artificial turf field was almost to the 50 yard line on Sunday.

That is all still under construction, but it's really cool how it's cut into the landscape like that. This place is going to be legit. Good for Sean Payton and the Saints.
