I heard this awhile ago but I was just talking to my friend just now about how we might dome Nippert Stadium. SInce we got that million from the Buckeyes for moving the game there how practical would it be to use that money to dome the stadium. I definatly want to see it expanded and if they do they can easily put up a dome or take it back down. Your thoughts?

Don't know about a dome. 1 million doesn't get you much nowadays, certainly not the structure to dome the football field. Right now the priority should be adding seating to nippert (it should be 50K at least, instead of the 30k capacity it has now), as well as the indoor training facility. The only problem is that there isn't enough room to do much of anything. They can add seats on the side of the press box, as well as the south end, but that's it. The training will be either an inflatable structure on the field, or an off-site facility. We'll see what they put together, but I really don't see a dome being built - the college season is up before weather gets really bad, and I can't think of too many games that would have benefitted from a dome. Besides, how many college teams have them? Syracuse, I think, but that's all that comes to mind.

I dont know where you got that information, that is highly unlikley.  I know they are thinking about getting an indoor practice facility that they are going to share with the Bengals.  When they do get the funds they are going to put it more suites, but as of right now they do not have many funds at all, they need more of you to donate money.

Not a chance for a dome but the stadium will be expanded at some point to reach. 45,000
