On November 14, 2013, the University released plans to build a football and lacrosse stadium, slated for completion by the fall 2015 football season.[2] The stadium will be designed by Wagner Murray Architects and Echo Artz. The stadium is slated to seat 5,000 while including a two story pressbox, and full matrix video board. UF will use this stadium as opposed to playing at Findlay High School's high school stadium: Donnell Stadium.
