Do this and get into a power 4!

Taken to scale, it sure looks like we can not only put in a stadium but have plenty of parking (not to mention all the student/commuter parking already available). Anyway, an on campus stadium will not bring a P4 invite for us.

No, a stadium won't get us an invite, but an invite might get a stadium.

Nice work on the side-by-side pictures. I don't think anyone would physically put it on horse barn Hill, but maybe just behind it in the UConn Forest. Can you do the same thing using the athletic campus as the comparison?

Not likely - read the last paragraph.

And Horse Barn Hill itself also seems extraordinarily unlikely to me. So that leaves their athletic campus or the Discovery Drive sites as the two most likely. As you know, I prefer the athletic campus site because of proximity to the Burton and Shenkman buildings. Plus, the football parking area would be available to use for other athletic events.

The Rent is at the most convenient place in the State. And the folks who give big bucks in addition to the legislature want it right where it is. It's not gonna change.

If that's the case UConn doesn't belong playing big time college football.
