TXZipFan Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 I wants snooping around about College Football Stadiums and found this info quite interesting. When I look at Univerisity of Akron football and then compare it to Florida Atlantic Univeristy football, I think "the Zips would wax FAU any day of the week!" You're probably wondering about the FAU reference, well they are also currently in the process of upgrading their stadium situation. As both Akron and FAU are "mid-major's" you would think we both would be envisioning the same thing right, or Akron would be setting their sights higher due to a better up and coming program??? FAU's proposed vision/plan/budgetIt will blow you're mind what they have been discussing and proposed!!! Very similar to what we all dream Akron would set it's standards to.

skip-zip Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Thanks TX. Good stuff.It looks like they will be in for quite a fight to try to get this done. But, I admire their quest to grow their program. And the Sun Belt is really starting to gain some notoriety as a league.Back in the mid-80's, after we turned 1-A, we DID have these kinds of ambitions. But, when Bill Muse left to go to Auburn, we really lost the man who had this vision. I hope we're heading in that direction again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
