Next two years will say a lot.

Does K-State athletics have any real expectations? Or is it a place to hang out, make some decent $, work in nice buildings, have access to lots of perks and swag and never really be challenged to achieve anything?

We'll see

The absolute expectation should be that fundraising for the building champions campaign should be done or close enough to done where we know definitive timelines. I know that they are monitoring the prices of building materials but hopefully that won't be used as an excuse for a lack of progress.

If we're going to be in a G5 conference, we need a G5 stadium. First renovation should be to open up the north end zone. And put in some grass instead of bleachers.

Do we just bulldoze Tointon and build the practice facility there?  Or just convert it to practice fields?

Here, we need to ask ourselves what kind of facilities G5 schools have and let that answer guide our decision.

Is there a strategy where we could ramp up investments right now and then declare bankruptcy as soon as construction is finished? Is anyone here that kind of lawyer?

I think we should do like super comfy movie theater type lounge seating in Bramlage. Each seat would take up a ton of space and would cut capacity in half probs. Might be able to sellout when Houston comes to town.

Our stadium is so amazing now.

It really is, just in time to fade off into irrelevance
