Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 2193110, member: 27"] Well, first of all, the stadium would not be on campus. Further, tt would not be owned by SU. They would be a tenant for the football team, the basketball teams and the lacrosse teams. It would be owned presumably by the county, who would also kick in some money to build it. If it were built in the blighted area the developers were originally targeting, it could be tied to economic development. I think the plan was to use it to house the pro hockey and soccer franchises, and for it to serve as a premiere concert facility. It would replace the War Memorial, which is at the end of the road and needs replacement. Cuomo and COR apparently did some stupid things and some people are probably going to go to jail but the idea itself wasn't a bad one. [/QUOTE]
