Speaking of that...

I don't the details exactly, but it actually might work out for GSU. We keep his $10mil, remove his name from our field for violation of some morality clause, and we sell our field's naming rights once again for another $10mil.


The point is that, USA can easily raise $10mil by pimping out their stadium to wealthy investors, successful alums, or companies looking to advertise their brand.

Exactly ...onward and upward USA

$10 Million from the city and $10 Million from the county. The county was waiting on the city so I'm not sure where that stands. But yeah move on is what's going to happen.

To be 100% accurate, it was 10 Million from City and 5 Million from County.....

So what’s the total cost of the new stadium and how much money does USA have on hand designated for the stadium construction?

Total cost of the stadium is 72 million.

So does USA have the other 57 million?

USA has a specific amount it can afford to finance. You can probably do some basic algebra to find out what that amount is given how much we were asking for.

I say probably because Troy fans do browse this board.

We will hope to have it ready for you guys to check it out. If you guys bring 5-7k, it will be packed house like how it is currently when Troy comes to town. Be sure to buy your tickets early. With a smaller stadium, the game will be a sellout with people fussing about not having tickets. I'm hoping a game with against Southern Miss could become a regular out of conference game.

Shouldn’t you be on the county commissioner’s door step begging for nickels?

Did i just dream this? I thought i read a few years back where someone at the top of Home Depot was a usa alum and was kicking in lots of money towards this project?

Wow, what a burn. I would have seen it sooner, but I was looking at new pictures of our on-campus stadium.

Maybe Movie Gallery would still be in business if they spent their money on R&D instead.

And that belt is the only thing in your trophy case because south only plays to beat Troy. You would gladly trade that belt for these.

That’s just a picture of a team that has never had a winning record.

I meant as far as a small town traditional school with a decorated history vs a larger city nontraditional school with a newer program, and although the newer program is less decorated relative to it's older counterpart, it holds a newly made rivalry trophy because of a recent win against the other program that they use as their main talking point.

I still say a true rivalry weekend could work in the Sun Belt. As noted on this thread, there is plenty of hate to go around.

Troy last yr and USA this yr have had home games on T'giving weekend and moved to Fri not to compete with Iron Bowl. Why not make Black Friday the permanent home for "battle of belt"? A lot better than a random Tues or Wed nite in October.

Half or more of the schools involved or more will be out of the running for the conference and a bowl game so much less fan interest. Students who you want to see embrace the program are at home for "rivalry weekend" so don't get the rivalry experience. Many other fans have family obligations and can't make the game.
