Welp. I guess they will get all the top recruits now...

Oh, wait.

Meh. Would still rather play at 900 Irving Ave, Syracuse, NY.

 

[Halo]

Frankly, that looks awesome.

Simply AWESOME! And to think that SU can't even get a $19M football IPF going.

Rupp Arena will be 10x better than any NBA facility.

By the time they build it, Calipari will be back in the NBA, one step ahead of the law, so to speak.

Rick Pitino told me 5 years ago “The first time a Kentucky booster comes into the Yum Center, UK will have a new building”

Boom.

Two quick thoughts watching that- 1) did they really show Lebron in there? I know I saw Jay-Z and it's interesting how they are connecting those guys to a school neither attended and 2) it's clear that colleges can't afford to pay their student-athletes.

Looks sharp, but I don't get the sense from any of the articles that this will increase seating capacity.

Still think it'd be fantastic to undertake something similar at the Dome.

An aside: I love getting pop-ups from mid-market newspapers warning me that I'm only permitted to read a limited number of free articles. Thanks, Lexington Courier-Journal, but I don't plan on visiting your website for a few years after today.
