As a season ticket holder at Taylor Stadium/Simmons Field I am actually quite pleased with the renovations. The place looks much, much better than it did in say 2003. Still lower end of the conference, but there is absolutely no way they are going to be building a new stadium in the near future. It is sufficient for what we need, now and in the intermediate future.

Always good to here from a fan. Capacity wise, no, we don't need more. From an aesthetic point of view the entire thing needs to be redone. That's not to say we need a 12,000 seat stadium. If it were me, I'd built a new facility with 5,000 or 6,000 seat capacity that you plan in potential expansion that makes sense if needed. The amenities for the players and the layout of the park just don't look good.

As to when? Guess it depends on if TJ is extended. If he is, you can probably get by for a while with what we have. If you want to bring in a top notch replacement for TJ, it's probably gonna be hard without some talk about what might be coming down the road.
