Blue Raiders Baseball Stadium Renovations

There is 1 big factor that is being overlooked. Besides for the fact that most all other teams have an existing football stadium and FAU is building from scratch, which will cost us 60 million +. The cost for FAU to build any sports facility is considerably more money then any of our conference opponents. Besides for the higher cost of labor in South Florida as opposed to Alabama, Tennessee, Texas, we also have to adhere to a lot more stringent building codes. With these requirements also comes product approvals. In order to get products with product approvals also comes a lot higher price. On average, you can expect our facilities to cost us at least 30% higher then our opponents for the same exact facility.  Add in 3 venues and one of them being built from scratch, it adds up quickly. On top of all this, our sports programs have only been around a fraction of the time our opponents have.
