UF had I-275 & I-4 backed up when they came through. We're not ready for the UF,UM and FSU type of hotel conference room fill-up yet, but it's coming.. 8-)
It should be a good crowd if the notice went out last week.

About 48,000+ live in Palm Beach and Broward depending on when those stats were updated. Get these people to the games!
Hopefully the turn out will be good for Alumni Association.

Here's what actually transpired in an official capacity the next day at the Sports Writers Meeting.

FAU: STADIUM UPDATE
Florida Atlantic coach Howard Schnellenberger spent more time discussing the Owls' future stadium than football Saturday.
Schnellenberger has been pushing for an on-campus stadium at FAU since he arrived in 2000. But last year, the school's board of trustees and president called off plans for a 40,000-seat domed stadium for football and basketball games with surrounding campus housing and retail stores.
Schnellenberger admitted Saturday there was ''an error in presentation'' with the original plan, but promises school officials will review a more thought-out plan in September, when he expects the Owls' stadium issues will be resolved once and for all.
There also could be an alternative plan to the originally proposed $120 million domed stadium. The other idea would be to build two stadiums – an open-air football stadium and a basketball arena for around $170 million, Schnellenberger said.
FAU's football team currently plays at Fort Lauderdale Lockhart Stadium, which is set to be demolished in the next two years.
As for the team's first opponent in a new stadium, Schnellenberger hopes it will be either Miami or FSU.
''I've been saving that [game] for one of those two teams,'' he said.
