Back up in the office Laird Veatch and Reid Sigmon briefed me on an upcoming stadium construction feasibility meeting and I looked at some potential press release drafts.

BS: Smashing day for a race, eh your Majesty?
KS: And over there is where Mr. Snyder commanded his team to victory so many times before.  Where the hounds are waiting to begin. 
QOE:  You mean there, where they are defecating?
KS:  Yes, yes.

Do one with a rodeo.

With NBAF, we might, MIGHT, be able to pry away the national bull riding championship from Cheyenne, right?

I think due to realignment, they are planning on painting the Dev instead(approximate cost is $5000). If we go purple camo, it will easily double (if not triple) in price. Warm up the check books!

It was still game even if the Big 12 didn't stay together.  we had to prove that we were big time to other conferences, our pressbox doesn't scream big time.  The price tag is still $60 million, if it comes in under budget they may go ahead with some other expansion areas that they have phased out.

It would have been if we went to the Big East or MWC.   :thumbsup:

So, I talked to a guy I know that's working on the thing today, and he told me that there aren't currently any plans at this point to close the north end zone, which is the only thing they can really do to significantly expand seating.  He said they may ultimately do it, but if so, it wasn't going to be a part of this phase unless they want to spend a crazy amount of money.

Also, he said that renderings aren't going to come out any time soon because the whole thing was put on hold (which he told me a while back, but CC said no).  Well, he again said that's what he was told by the people that give him his marching orders, and it was on hold until the whole conference thing was taken care of because we obviously had budgeted some of this expansion from the TV money.

Anyway, just passing along what he told me.
