Where would UF play if they decided to go all out and replace the current stands?


They'd have to move it the edge of campus, there is very little room to build new sports facilities. Don't think it happens but could help give us room for more football facilities.

Home plate is in the northwest corner of the field. Where would you have it? A roof woul be most helpful.

Seems like UF would well served to consider moving their golf course off campus.

LSU did that, and scored a sweet deal where the TAF basically foots the entire bill for maintenance of the course without the university having to spend a penny on upkeep.

You guys would have all kinds of room then.

I guess southwest would be better for shade coverage.

The stands are mostly facing SE. I would have them facing due north or NW.

I'm going by what I noticed the shadow patterns were when I sat in the stands.

We live in the Northern hemisphere so the sun is coming in from the South. A roof in the current configuration still allows the sunlight to come under the eave. Rotating the entire park 180 degrees and a roof would actually block the sun.
