It was built to accommodate baseball so the sideline stands were farther from the field than any collegiate stadium in America. Plus it was falling apart. Made total sense to start from scratch rather than Attempt to retrofit a dinosaur.

Is the new stadium on campus?

Anyway, having grown up watching football in the 1970s, I kind of miss those old stadiums that were originally designed for baseball, like Oakland Alameda County Stadium, Candlestick Park and others. I liked it when the offense had the ball in the baseball infield with the dirt and stuff.

The entire site will become part of the SDSU campus, connected to the main campus by trolly that is two stops away. This is a transformational project for the school and the region.

OK, sounds like it's not really "on campus", right? It's a short distance from the actual campus with trolley shuttle connection. Like Georgia State's stadium, the renovated Turner Field, that is owned by the university but is separate from the campus by a mile or so.

I think if USF did an OCS it would be either on the existing campus or else adjacent to it, so that there is no intervening separation. But of course that's a fantasy for us, while your quasi-campus stadium is fast becoming a reality. Kudos.

Campus is being built at the stadium. So ON campus. We did the same.
