Forgive me if this has been brought up before, but has there been any serious consideration for playing a game or two on Davis Field, early in the season so weather wouldn't be a factor?

It would mess up the field for the girls soccer team, and I don't think that there is acquit seating and no video bord. I like the thought but let's fill the dome.

Someday the dome will sale out but our team will have to be contending for a championship. Until that time, expect 6000 or less per game or half full.

ISU played a spring game at Davis Field during the last year or so of Larry Lewis' tenure (Matt Gutierrez played his spring game there). I remember then hearing that the field was not wide enough and you could tell in that game. In addition, the bleachers on the east side of the field are in dis-repair. The Big Sky Conference soccer tourney this year was packed on the west side and I think the attendance was 1100 for the championship game. Of course, the West side bleachers could be fixed (and that would be nice) but the field is not wide enough and the capacity would still only be 2200 or so.

Too bad. Thought it might be a vehicle to spring some life into this 'Descent into the Maelstrom.'

It's not too narrow...a soccer field is wider than a football field. The bigger issues are for the players actually...no locker rooms or anything like that. There are definitely not enough concessions or bathrooms either.
