Mason's recent and continuing renovations to the Patriot Center, along with the building of a hotel and conference center on campus, makes it a nice option in the Mid-Atlantic. There may not be enough seats or bells and whistles in the Patriot Center, though, so perhaps the Verizon Center downtown could work. Plus, there's plenty of great places for fans to wander around to and restaurants to eat in downtown, too. The City of Richmond didn't do enough to keep the long-time minor league team the Braves in town...I doubt they'll do anything to improve the Coliseum, considering there's no regular sporting events there. Good riddance. I hope Yeager's letter is more than talk, and actually results in some action. Ouch. Way to go, Yeager.
