Mini-Master Plan for Athletics The impetus behind the Athletics Master Plan was to preliminarily investigate multiple campus locations which could support a football stadium and determine what existing facilities may need to relocate or be rebuilt. Since the earliest that the University could support a football program would likely be year 2025 or later, the University’s new charge was to develop a master plan for all of the University’s athletic facilities. The end result of this study was the development of a five-phase Athletics Master Plan. The University’s goals with this master plan are to centralize the University’s athletic facilities, accommodate future growth, the eventual development of a football program, and provide new opportunities for the student body. Finally, it will allow the university to further compete both regionally and nationally in the recruitment of student-athletes.
