You again do not know what you are talking about.

The roof of the Carrier Dome has been deflated a number of times to prevent a catastrophic failure during severe snow storms.  There have been a number of near misses.  The inherent long term problems with air supported domes have been discussed on this board in the past.  I urge you to use the search function there or just google the topic and educate yourself.

Basketball cannot be played at Manley.  Capacity is about 800.  The movable stands were removed by Dr Gross years ago to make it a football practice facility.  Even if basketball games could be played there, what do you do with the 11K of season ticket holders who no longer have seats to games?  What do you do with the thousands of tickets already bought by non season ticket holders?  Where do you play lacrosse games (men and women)?  Where do you hold graduation ceremonies?  Where do you hold scheduled events like Monster Trucks and concerts?

Mitigating real risk isn't a bunch of baloney raised by a blowhard salesperson.  This is a real problem for SU and to their credit, they have confronted it and are dealing with it.
