RE: NEW stadium construction - Old Dominion - 02-07-2018 05:07 PM Even Minium is sealed up tight. Someone suggested he may be trying to shame them into reporting something, anything. May be right. RE: NEW stadium construction - jasdf - 02-07-2018 05:13 PM Until proven wrong, i am taking the silence as admission from our leadership that they do not know what the hell they're doing. we're recruiting like a 4 win CUSA team. Just fix what you're gonna fix at foreman and be done with it. It ain't like we're on the cusp of something special and that a new stadium is going to take us over the edge. We have lost ALL momentum as a program, this is just making it worse RE: NEW stadium construction - T-Mac - 02-07-2018 05:33 PM How much would temporary stadium seating cost? I wouldn't be opposed to building a Norfolk State style bleacher on one side and a pimped out other side. Once we have secured more funding in the future, we could take down the bleachers and replace them with a permanent structure.

Yes! $50m should be enough if it's applied to the west side only, plus a little ($5m or so) to either shore up the east side to make it last another 10 years, or tear it down and build something basic, to be replaced later.

Do remember that if we touch the clamshell it loses it's grandfathered in status and needs to be brought up to code.

Attention and Wood and company! You are seriously disenfranchising your diehards. Please communicate something with the people who truly care and are committed to your program. The silence is deafening and it’s really starting to concern the people who actually pay attention to your program year round. Make something happen soon!

We have a right to cry, we the alum and fans provide a lot funding for this crap RE: NEW stadium construction - Monarch Blue - 02-08-2018 01:46 PM (02-08-2018 01:38 PM)jasdf Wrote: It's about time to run the guy out of town.

Time for a change. RE: NEW stadium construction - cmett003 - 02-08-2018 03:37 PM Has anyone tried to email WS directly to try to get a response? RE: NEW stadium construction - Old Dominion - 02-08-2018 04:00 PM I did 2 days ago. No response as of yesterday. Have not been able to check personal emails yet today. I'll certainly let you guys know what if anything I hear.

We have a right to cry, we the alum and fans provide a lot funding for this crap I know Runte ruffled some feathers up in Richmond, but the lady sure did have vision. I loved how she stated her desire to make ODU a top 100 Research institution, how she brought in football and created a sense of pride not seen before or since at ODU. Its as if she saw the great potential of the place and was determined to make it happen, in spite of the politicians in Richmond trying to smack her down and telling her to know her place in the pecking order. She fought to make ODU a top tier, high quality, desirable place for people to want to come and learn. The guys in charge now seem willing to roll over while Richmond tramples any aspirations of greatness, as if ODU and its students don't deserve nice things. Those should be reserved for the "upper class". Runte didnt put up with that crap and it showed.

All is going well on the stadium. We are quietly fine tuning the final design and cost estimates along with the schedule. Nothing to report publicly as all continue to be moving targets at this point. Sorry I do not have more to report. Stay tuned. ws Dr. Camden Wood Selig Director of Athletics RE: NEW stadium construction - odu09 - 02-08-2018 04:46 PM Hey, all is going well! Let's shut this thing down. |
