In-depth interview with Finebaum just ended. Last name sounded like "Dewey" I believe. I've never attended the UF baseball field so I have no idea, but is he accurate? I know Bama's field was pretty far down the line until the recent magnificent upgrade, and is now considered to be a top five field nationally, not necessarily seating capacity, but all the other stuff.

That was Dooley and he is right.
UF is about to correct that though from what we're hearing.

It's really bad, but it can't be worse than Missouri's right?
I know nothing about their field though

He's forgetting about (or never been to) Missouri, but that is probably the sole exception. The stands have no cover, and more seats looking into the sun than on the west side of the field. Watching the super regional against Wake, I was surprised to see mud in the outfield--you don't usually see that with a modern, sand-based drainage system, which made me wonder if UF doesn't have state of the art drainage, or if they just do a poor job with it.

The field is fine, the stands and concessions need to be upgraded. I would recommend reducing the capacity to about 3,000 and putting in recliners along with selling beer delivered by Hooter girls. This would increase the demand for tickets and keep the stands full for games.

Wow, lots of comments stating that Missouri's field is the worst, did not know.

Pat Dooley, not Dewey.
I thought our actual field wasn't bad. It's the stadium that sucks (which is getting renovated this year).

What do you expect?? 30 people at a super regional. GTFO

It's a bad venue for watching a baseball game. It's way too hot in the stands. Poor planning when they designed that thing. I have no idea about the field itself.

The sad thing about florida baseball stadium is that even with it being pretty small, they need to decrease the capacity because uf can't even sell it out for a super regional game 3. It's a joke how poor their attendance is for baseball, especially when you consider how their program has had reasonable success.
