High Schools won't even play in that old POS. They can use that land to build a new stadium in its place one day, though. 

JerryWorld would be the obvious solution until that can be accomplished.

You know your stadium is a POS when people who spent many afternoons in Fouts think it is terrible.

But look at all that land, and it looks like an erector set, so demolition wouldn't be that expensive.

I really think UTA will head this way in a year or 2. Like I said, they will start football before UNT starts baseball.

If memory serves me correctly, I seem to recall that UTA opened that stadium and then dropped football like two years later.  Well, upon looking it all up, the stadium opened in 79' and they dropped football after the 85' season.

I heard this story on KRLD while out driving yesterday. My FIRST thought when they got to the stadium part was that I knew where they could find the right guy to get that stadium built. I was tempted to send them his contact information and write a letter of recommendation.

A man can dream, eh?

Several Dist 4-6A games were played at UTA stadium last season.

But, how can that be?  UNT90, the great wanna be athletic director, said they wouldn't play there!  How dare those athletic programs go and do something that UNT90 "knows" they wouldn't do?  Can't believe they didn't ask for his approval first.

This is what you choose to point out? Lol. 

You are right. I could never be AD for UTA. Happy?

Wow. RV and I have something in common. Who knew?

Here's a rumored rendering of the TexWes Football and Fort Worth Vaqueros (minor league soccer) stadium:

I can go one better.  I recall when our crosstown Orange County rivals, Cal State Fullerton, opened up their shiny new 10,000 seat football stadium for the 1992 season.  The Titans played four games in that stadium (seven road games), then dropped football at the end of the 1992 season.

I can point out the locations of a murder scene or an attempted murder scene on all four sides of their campus, and multiple blocks deep.  So they will surely want to have an off campus stadium I would think in order to host night time games?
