The BJCC plan includes renovating the entire complex to add additional convention space, bring the arena to NCAA tournament standards (that's something that *would* come back), and build the football stadium for less than a 75,000 seat "dome"

If you think ESPN wouldn't move the bowl game to a brand new yet smaller stadium you should delete your account, throw your computer in the river, and stop opining on this topic

Good advice regardless.

It does NOT matter what I think, or what any on this forum thinks about ESPN moving the bowl game & the MCC to a new stadium. The people whose thoughts DO MATTER have not to date publicly committed to any site but Legion Field.

For the sake of UAB Blazer football, I hope a new stadium is available sooner rather than later. Until those two "visitor games" commit to switch from Legion Field though, the city is faced with the possibility of having to pay for both venues which may explain their reluctance to date to promise city money to the BJCC.
