For my 4000th post, I guess I'll ramble a little bit. For starters, a couple nuggets I've heard over the past handful of weeks...
DB & Staff - some interesting things that have been going on here. The school's been working on an endowment to fund staff salaries/increases. Long story short, they made a decision internally long before the Clemson game on what they wanted to do and started working on it.
My understanding is that Dino really wants to put roots down here and build something. Save a big program coming in and writing a check we can't match, I think Syracuse would get every opportunity to respond, and they would in turn do whatever to keep him. I think there's a pretty strong commitment on both ends.
He's our guy, embrace the process.
Renovation - details are a little more sparse here, but my understanding is that internal buy-in to what needs to be done is greater than ever.
We haven't heard anything on the Done Reno, because quite frankly, they're not where they need to be financially and it's most likely still going to be a bit.
With that being said, I've heard that the plan is Reno all the way. Individual seats bringing capacity to 44k, AC, hard-top, expanded concourse and field level club 44 in addition to some nifty other things.
I'm excited to see how we finish the year. You've got to keep building. Some tough breaks this year for a tough football team.
I'm going to enjoy the ride from here on out.
4,000 posts, holy schnikes I've wasted so much time of my life immersed in this community! Thank you for making it enjoyable boys and girls!
