New Stadium: What should it look like?

[urbanpreppie05]

I have seen Stambaugh stadium when driving through Youngstown...Look, It works there because it stands out above Y'town's short skyline. Akron needs something that will stand out, yet NOT detract from the other new buidings and fit the character (and remember that there MAY be other projects in front) of the rest of UA/University Park. Once again, Stambaugh will not fit at Akron. Period.

YSU will never be I-A.  I'm not saying you can't, but its just a matter of you not jumping on board in time.  YSU cannot possibly get into the MAC.  Akron, Can't, the directional Michigans, and probably most of the Ohio schools will block you in a second, and I can understand why.  And if you can't get into the MAC where else will you go?  The Sunbelt?

Think of the direction of the MAC. Now think about the positives of bring YSU in.Now can you tell me honestly if the MAC would turn down YSU.

Yes. You're in an already crowded market (NEO) and nobody wants to come to play in Youngstown. Most of us prefer to stay bullet free.
