According to Hamrick's below quote in the HD, I wouldn't hold my breath that the stadium will be built anytime soon. Not being negative, just realistic.
"Today's Expression of Interest is a preliminary step in what we hope and dream might happen in the future. There is still a lot that needs to transpire to make these plans a reality," said Marshall Athletic Director Mike Hamrick in a statement released Wednesday.
To be precise, MH, ". . . hope and dream might happen in the future." is what has been the battle cry for anyone involved or interested in MU baseball since the mid 60s when Jack Cook use to take his team down to St. Cloud Commons where a good spring shower would turn the whole place into a swamp.
Still believe this whole Brownsfield/Highlawn development only goes forward when there is some resolution to the future disposition of some or all of the ACF property (or it certainly appeared that way with all the plans announced/published in the HD around the time Huntington was vying for, and won, that "Best City" contest).
Anyone have any idea or knowledge that Carl Icahn has had a change of mind/heart about the future of the ACF site??
