hoopjunkie agree. plus the 20k at both venues. Unfortunately UA can't open the doors for breakeven, but than again its the tax payer dime so why do they care. As far as the one blogger stating football was the priority at UA , 16k seating, 5k avg attendance for an up and coming team. Problem with football not sure how long schools will be caring in the NE. Look at school 140miles west of here. Have the name tradition but tough recruiting. This trend has nothing to do with UA specifically but an expansion of stadium was already shot down. All on the board need to admit UA haw mad2 great strides in athletics, but the bloggers with purple tinted glasses should remember it is cyclical.

SU?

I'll reimburse you personally double...deal? $14 per capita in taxes is a lot of money. If lawmakers made that type of "business decision" they deserve to be run out of town. Lagre investment for a negative return. Bill I hope you realize my response was sarcasm in an off hand reply to clicks post that Brown only costs us .30. I agree with you on the bad return. But afterall it is part of UA's basketball programs boon to the region. Spend away!
