That stadium looks LEGIT, hopefully they get butts in the seats considering what a struggle that has been in the past

I believe Allen has the biggest at 18k. This is supposed to be 45k.

What a waste of $30 million. At least it'll be packed for the annual 7A State Championship that will eventually be played there.

Who's paying for it?

Idk, maybe we should shut down there program because they could potentially be a threat to the University of Alabama and their football program.

I'm not pissed. I hope UAB does well. 45k seems like a lot of seats though.
Comparable programs
MTSU- 30k
Western Kentucky- 22k (overhauled 2009)
North Texas- 31k (built 2011)
Houston- 40k (built 2014)
Tulane- 30k (built 2014)
45k will make it one of the biggest G5 stadiums outside of teams with shared facilities like South Florida and UTSA.

$30 million isn't going to come close to building a stadium that big. Wonder what the actual cost is?
Count me as thinking this is a good thing. Legion Field sucks arse. You can move the Birmingham Bowl here and I think more people (not sell-outs, mind you) would go to UAB games rather than going to that shithole stadium and neighborhood at Legion Field.
