Title: Athlete Dorms
Post by: Belvis Noland on January 08, 2014, 04:54:50 PM
Somebody explain this to me.  What are the rules on building athletic housing facilities.  I know Kentucky has a sick setup.  Now, KU is building a $17mil pad over by AFH. 

http://www.kansascity.com/2014/01/08/4737360/ku-planning-175-million-apartment.html

I would love to see the same thing for our hoopers over in Jardine.

Could a stronger signal of "we don't give a crap about football" be sent?

Obviously, there's not enough room for football...maybe if they gated it and put a "Football Players Not Allowed" sign up.

good idea to confine these thugs in one building which just happens to be right across from where they work.  lawrentucky (and the state of kansas) just got a whole lot safer.

Maybe throw in some padded sinks and stairs.

I'll confess, I was a creeper (I know, sad) and went and looked at some addresses of several of our b-ball players and they both had Jardine addresses.   If they're living in the new ones, decent apts, a few hundred yards from the BTF, and easy access to the sports nutrition center in the WSC.

I am pretty sure one of our players lived in one of those off campus apartments south east of Haymaker Hall. I always saw Martavious, Shane, and Rodney coming out of there, or walking towards the derb from that direction.

HOWEVER, If we were to do the same thing, I'd rather spend the money on a huge mansion for our guys.

Yeah sure that will definitely pay for itself.

So the new apartment building will be open to 34 non-athletes.

Yeah because picking 34 of the basketball players friend's is fair to the student body.

ā€œI’m really struggling with the cost there,ā€ Kenny Wilk, vice chairman of the Kansas Board of Regents told the Lawrence Journal-World on Monday.

This guy gets it. Even if they have donors pay for it (which apparently they don't have enough money for that) it means that tax payers have to pay for more of their dorm expansions. (Even though enrollment has been down for the last few years).

Are they trying to bankrupt themselves and drive all the students away?

I would love for some from KU to explain to me how a dorm for athletes with 66 rooms can create revenue.  Will there be monthly bake sales?  Do the weed dealers that will become regulars here have to pay some sort of tax?
