Does UM's Decision Finally Put Roof Over Marlins' Head?

"While UM's decision (to move to Dolphin Stadium) doesn't mean that a new Marlins stadium is a done deal -- the club released only a noncommittal statement Tuesday -- it does free up as much as $88 million that the city and Miami-Dade County had identified as money for renovating the Orange Bowl to keep the Hurricanes there.

"Now that money could go toward closing a $30 million gap in a $490 million plan to build a retractable-roof ballpark for the Marlins in place of the storied football stadium." (MiamiHerald)
