If I was a USM fan, I'd be beating down the door for one of those tailgating slots. That speaks to me on so many levels.

After looking at the renders on a big screen..

1) The batters eye in center field is comically small will not end up in that configuration.

2) USM is about to build the 2nd nicest ballpark in MS.

I am happy for them, but somewhat skeptical that they can afford it. They are currently doing a basketball facility improvement and I have to imagine funds are tight.

It looks pretty good, but the official announcement says it "marks the beginning of a fundraising effort to help bring the proposed improvements". I doubt the actual renovations will live up to these renderings. Just look their basketball arena. It's fallen well short of the renderings they initially released years ago when they started talking about renovations to it.

You know who has shockingly decent facilities for a Sunbelt team? ULL. No clue how they pay for it because it ain’t coming from ticket sales.

I agree with this. Times are just tough in the college world. All available money needs to go to NIL and coaching salaries to get players and coaches. I would doubt that the "Master Plan" that MSU released a few years ago for facilities has much life either.

I have no idea why so many of our fans fight back against this idea.

They just know that USM and OM are desperately trying to steal State's thunder and especially State's baseball "atmosphere." State put it all on the map. Wanting to be a "baseball state" is something their fans couldn't care less about and some typical "gosh darnit we can share it" State fan defeatist mindset trash.

Some southern Miss fan said $25 million, I said we paid more for a 5-7 football roster
