The Sky Club is not what was expected. They are mere padded white card table chairs with arm rests. They certainly do not look like an expensive seat, but they are not going to put money into an improvement that will soon (they hope) become obsolete. But, those seats certainly do not sell themselves.
Trust me, it'll be much more appealing within then next year or two. We might also have some big news about getting students to come in from tailgating instead of getting trashed and leaving by the end of the month, but it wont be implemented until next year. Stay tuned.

If a chance at free tuition for the spring on top of seeing your schools D1 FBS program who has won 11+wins the past 4 seasons along with 3 conference championships the past 4 seasons then they are not going to be coming...then I am not sure its worth any additional effort to try to get those kids to the game.

Spend that extra effort to get locals or alums to the game.


...Though Frazier's team could probably come up with something that would change my mind.
I'm not putting myself in a position to get in trouble so i can't say. I will not confirm or deny anything either...

Now that that's outta the way, it is something that has been discussed here in earnest before and something being slowly implemented and accepted around the nation. Take that for what it's worth...

A Paperback Grotto souvenir stand?!?

So I went to practice today and they took down the end zone tents... Thought those were the official ones and then they would add more huskies stuff to make it look more official.

From my understanding they will be more like the HAF tent to help block the elements.

Nothing added at this point is final because of the impending master plan. Everything added is temporary.

For an inside source, you have not really given much information Staycool. I never quite understand when people say they have inside information, and then say they can't give any info. So when is that big schedule announcement coming?

The tent was jus a mock version. They told me they are going to level the ground a little more to make it more flat. The actual tent will be taller, so they can install heaters above your head.

Well see, I'd prefer to NOT get fired since i already got nailed once for skirting too close to the line on here once and i would feel extremely bad if i got my friend fired from their position... i mean i can just never say a word about anything if you'd prefer? If i get a green light on things I'll say them, till then i gotta be more careful than i was before. That's all

Edit: but please MD, let me thoroughly apologize for not risking my financial welfare enough to appease you with the little snippets i am able to glean from the upper tiers of my work place...

I totally agree with this. The risk/reward is out of balance here. Why risk 2 jobs over this? No need to gossip!

Like i said, i got too gossip happy but it's under control. If i get any greenlights to slip insider info, I'll say it. Otherwise just assume i can't speak on it.

Now, of course, if we were to GUESS something, well that'd be a different story. 03-shhhh
