| Wouldn't be surprised if the entire football program at UTC is the next one dropped. |

Great idea building that thing a mile from UTC's campus. They should have just re-built Chamberlain Field or turned Engel Stadium into a football field, considering its real close to campus. |

Not sure when the last time is that you visited Engel Stadium but it is in shambles...no sewage, flooding problems....condemned....Plus Finley Stadium is the same distance, plus or minus a mile, that Engel is from campus.
I agree that Chamberlain should have been rebuilt but it is a wreck as well....The revenue of the Championship Game is important to the city, thus, Finley Stadium. |

Finley is about a mile southwest. I have to strongly disagree with you on that one. Maybe Engel was too dilapidated to renovate, but its site or the parking area beside it would have been a much better spot, imo, for Finley. |

He would take one look at the lack football facilities (outside of Finley) and die of laughter as he is flying back to Kentucky. |
