If they'd just listened to me all those years ago when the dome talk started, we'd have a new stadium and renovated BJCC by now. I said all along a ~45,000 seat stadium and a renovated arena was all we needed.


No doubt. The Dome was just a stupid idea. It didn't fulfill a true need. The plan was basically building a dome and then hoping "they" will come.

A new/completely renovated arena is a must IMO. No excuse why we shouldn't compete for the SEC Basketball Tourney or NCAA early round games.

Let's keep the championship events in better cities. Birmingham kind of sucks compared with Nashville Atlanta and new Orleans

C-USA tourney this year was great. We do need the first and second round games back again though.
