There's a reason it won't happen. USC does not want to play there. It's a bad location next to a not so great area. The field floods real bad during rain storms. It would cost a few million just to fix that problem. If all it needed was $5 million to become so nice then why didn't the city just give that to the Bombers for them to stay. What the Bombers and the city were willing to contribute to the new joint stadium idea was close to that amount as it were. Yet, both wanted a joint stadium in the Vista with USC.

The Bombers plan to build a $12 million stadium in Greenville. Hell, if they could upgrade Capital City stadium for half that then why leave? Because, it would cost a lot more then that and would still only be a renovated stadium with very little parking and very little appeal. Ron Morris is an idiot appealing to readers who aren't up-to-date on the issues. Again, he doesn't make any valid points.
