We received plenty of feedback on last week’s post in which MMQB staffers suggested potential locations for an NFL expansion team. Here are some of the responses:
Albert Breer’s research [supporting an Austin-San Antonio franchise] is only missing one thing. If you’re going to base that team in San Antonio or Austin, the place to base it is San Antonio. Austin is and always will be ruled by Texas Longhorns football. Any team will get more local support in San Antonio.
As a nod to the possibility of a future Austin/San Antonio “Metroplex,” build the stadium either in Northeast San Antonio (the current site of the Retama Park Racetrack would be perfect) or between New Braunfels and San Marcos.
