The proposed budget for building a 35,000-seat football stadium on-campus at USF has finally been announced, more than 20 months after the university renewed its push for such a project.
According to the agenda for the board of trustees’ finance committee, the Bulls expect the stadium to come in at a total cost of $340 million, with a financing of $200 million over two decades. Despite receiving no funds from the state or tax dollars, the university will provide the remaining amount. The details, however, are tentative and subject to the board’s approval, but they provide the most comprehensive glimpse yet of the Bulls’ intentions to move to the stadium, situated north of the practice facilities, by the 2026 season.
