It's kinda simple in a way. The numbers don't add up. The dome roof needs to be redone in the next 10 years or less. The tech to maintain the current structure is more or less obsolete. The ACC has us committed to high level football, or our best version of it until at least 2035. With the ACC network, TV contracts, bowl tie ins, etc., that contract is in the neighborhood of 30-40 million a year until then, and most likely after that as well. We would be insane to drop football, which is the major reason we are in the conference to begin with, and lose that revenue on top of the marketing it gives us in the SE, which is where the vast majority of the population is growing. The dome will get done, because it has too. Will it have every bell and whistle available, heck no. Syracuse never goes to that level, but we will get something done in the next 5-10 years.

Only way we'd ever drop football is if we get left out of a major change in landscape and relegated down to the D-1AA level or similar. That or lawsuits kill the sport entirely...

As for the school rating issue that [USER=5920]cuse10[/USER] noted. I'm right with ya. It's beyond embarrassing to be 61. How about the fact that they are gonna charge next years freshman 50k for that rating! Insane. BC is like 27. This needs to change asap. We keep going backwards.
