No announcement yet.
Would you support the return of football at WSU?

If parking is any part of your concerns just seriously leave the conversation. You wanna know where you will park? In a parking lot. Will you have to walk? Yes get over it. Are you gonna cry about "lack of parking" and proclaim you'll never attend and event there? Well now you're just being a whiny ass cry baby. Shut up
now with that said... IMO Bardo has done some thing which really coincides with trying to grow Wichita State into more of a traditional school as compared to the commuter school it has been in the past (and currently still) Shocker Hall was a huge step forward in that. I'm sure the new dorms (when they ever get built) will be a huge step as well
With the basketball program being on the level that it is is only going to help.
I'm not sure there is adequate parking for an on campus stadium especially with the planned innovation campus taking up much of the former golf course. In that case where would we put a stadium?Its a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.

Although costly IMO it would be best to build a new stadium. as someone mentioned to you above there is space pretty close to the campus. Which I am sure someone will find a way to ***** about that.

I would imagine WSU would start in the MVC Football conference while building the program UNLESS they can get a big name coach to build it. If they could get a Parcells type name that players would want to come play for it could fast forward the recruiting process.People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do. -Isaac Asimov

You're still incredibly wrong. I get what you're saying and you're right. But thats not what people are talking about when they mention parking. They want the shortest distance from vehicle to seat. If it requires taking more than 10 steps its 'THERES NO PARKING" As of right now theres lots of space around koch all the way towards 17th and the lot on 21st and Oliver. I dont know what the plans are for Fairmount Towers but sure lets make that a parking lot as well. WSU just announced that they were looking into a parking garage on campus.
Although costly IMO it would be best to build a new stadium. as someone mentioned to you above there is space pretty close to the campus. Which I am sure someone will find a way to ***** about that.
My concern is still a lack of space. You will not only have the stadium, you will need practice fields for both the team & marching band, space for whatever womens programs have to be started, and parking for 10 - 15k vehicles on gameday.
I'm sure we can find the space somewhere, but not so sure that we can do it on campus.Its a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.
