Now that Commonwealth Stadium in Lexington has turf, I expect it to permanently move there when the WKU deal is over. The KHSAA is based in Lexington. Plus there's ample parking, lodging and the place seats 61,000. With the exception of Mayfield, Lexington is pretty reasonable for every team in the state. As it stands right now, Belfry and Pikeville, and JC is traveling the furthest.

I dont see it for this very reason.

That's a whole lotta empty space.

Even your biggest 6A games of all time will be lucky to draw 15K.

You average finals game attendance is probably in the 7500 range...

EKU will eventually make the most sense once they finish the stadium. Will fit the largest of crowds, tons of hotels between Richmond and Lexington, smaller crowds will still fit well. Indoor areas for hosting the dog and pony shows. Turf field. Good enough parking. Closer to the hub of the state.

Believe it or not WKU is closer to the geographical center of KY than UK, UL, or EKU. Campbellsville is essentially the center point. With that said, WKU is much further away from the center of Kentucky's heaviest population base.
