In the late 1990s, a UCF athletic administrator called me into an office and rolled out a set of blueprints. It was for an on-campus stadium. I stared in amazement and asked when and how?<\/p>\n
He responded, \u201cSomeday, I just don\u2019t know when.\u201d<\/p>\n
I remember driving to campus the morning of Sept. 15, 2007. UCF was playing host to Texas in the opening football game at Bright House Networks Stadium.<\/p>\n
I had no idea what to expect. In fact, no one did. There had never been a day like it before at UCF.<\/p>\n
The Knights had been playing football games for 28 years at that point, but not a single down of one of those games had been played in an on-campus stadium.<\/p>\n
