Yes, I do really appreciate what we have for a stadium. The decision to build a D1 soccer stadium for use as a D2 football stadium was pretty genius. It would be nice if we could upgrade a couple things and give some parts a spit shine after 13 years, but overall I really can't complain. The partnership between the city/college/high school to get these facilities up has been amazing.
I'm rooting for you guys to get something better in Mankato. I think the team has earned it more than anything. Though I do love the field and views from the Blake, I think it's time to move on... especially after what Northern built.
I know it sounds like I'm putting my own team down - it's not that, I just have to be realistic. My *hope* is that this roster reset gives us a fresh start and the team uses this year to gain experience and mesh together. The expectation for next year will be a lot stronger. We'll see what happens.
