I don't understand why people are pissed that we are throwing couch change at the non-revenue sports.

What's the big deal?  Just park somewhere else.  Babies.

That's where the students tailgate.  It's not about where you park, it's about taking away from the students.  Screw the students tailgating at the biggest sporting events at a university, we don't want to keep our central place for all the students to gather.  It's not like the purpose of the university is them.

If there was a reason that we needed another building near the stadium, it would be different, but there is no reason to build that there.

Well maybe its for the better. Could encourage a little more unity pulling some tailgates together. SuperPartyMegaFootballPartyZone

This is a great thing for the progress of the university. Every sport should have something to their own. And besides, why are people complaining, at least this isn't Nebraska's campus, where every athletic venue is within one drunk guys pissing distance to each other.

I have thought, what if we dumped like 10mil into our rowing team to have like the dankest rowing squad in the country. We could probably win back to back team nattys, can't be too difficult to dominate a 'sport' like that.

Time to panic and quit the project.  Just move the money to gold plated urinals in the WSC
