A coaching/recruiting upgrade and a stadium students can actually get to (better atmosphere), hell yes. Not everyone needs a 100k stadium.

How is a Cuban attorney worth 20 billion?


He was a junior in the firm working for Hyman Roth in Cuba. Figure it out.

It would go a long way towards selling an experience to potential recruits and fans. In this new world of NIL there's a lot of room for growth in a place like Miami.

A 50K seat stadium makes a lot of sense for schools like Miami, USC, and UCLA. Real estate is bloody high and in those places you have actual competition with other entertainment options including pro sports. In SEC cities and towns there's only one big ticket for the most part.

That’s what they approximately averaged per game in their best years at the current stadium, which is over 30 minutes away from campus. The Orange Bowl was much closer to campus. The rumored proposal puts a stadium a mile or two from campus.

USC gets 75,000 a game when they are good. UCLA does pretty good too when they are good, but the stadium location is a major handicap.

I imagine we will take a step back once Saban retires but until then we will be fine and will be able to cherry pick the country.
like he said, the only reason you have been able to do that has been because of no consistent powers in the most talented states.

USC, a combination of Miami/UF/FSU, Texas, UGA, and LSU being on top of their recruiting game will be the downfall to Alabama.

It was a disastrous move when Miami lost the Orange Bowl and began playing in an impersonal three fourths empty stadium 25 miles away from campus.

I have a plan, and it’s to marry a member of that family.

100%. Bryce Young would be at USC if they weren’t such a dumpster fire.


Plus Harris, that guy is a USC/ Cal/Stanford RB for years. Guys like that going to Bama is bad for CFB
