No, I do, because I reek of awesomeness. "Close to campus" means within walking distance. Your typical FBS college has lots and lots of students living on campus (or in private housing just off campus) which means a lot of them aren't driving on a daily basis.

So if your pro stadium is not within drunken stumbling distance of your campus, no, it's not close.

As RJS ages a bit, the OCS talk will ramp up.

Because your leadership understands that your situation is not ideal.

Adjacent! Usin' them big words at DRive-Thru U!

Seriously, I understand that different schools are different. My mother drove to St Johns from Brooklyn, 15 miles each way. St Johns finally built dorms partially because the athletic housing allowance was becoming an issue. But the FBS model, and one that USF is driving towards, is undergraduates living on (or very near) campus and an on-campus stadium, all in walkable distances.
