It'll be curious to see attendance this season. Very eager to see the schedule. Probably worse, still in construction mode at the school, and probably all D2 schools for home games. I'm going to be more interested in how many UNA fans go to Huntsville for the renewal of the A&M rivalry.....

Depending on how quickly they could tear ECM down,that would be the best location. Close to campus and multi-lane streets, has a parking deck and many other parking areas nearby. I think “Nursing Home Hill” (the Mitchell Hollingsworth property) is the holy grail as far as locations for a new stadium go. But you’re right, that property would work well. If the city of Florence ever got off their butts and extended College Street out to Savannah Highway, that would create easy access. Maybe some sort of deal can be worked out to where M-H can have the hospital property, and we can have Nursing Home Hill? And while I know this is a sports board, I’ve said it before. I really wish the University could acquire the hospital property and turn it into a medical school. That would raise both enrollment and prestige of our school greatly. It would really balance out the state, since I believe that would make for med schools at USA in Mobile, Birmingham obviously, and then UNA. And yes, I realize this would have to be approved by the state and probably isn’t even on the radar. But it should be. . That would be great to land the MH site if MH could occupy ECM. It is also large enough to house a medical school. I think ECMs problems with mold and staph may be expensive enough that demolition would be more economical.
