RE: John Cunningham Interview W/ Ch 9
The university shot itself in the foot by building the rec center so close to the stadium. It makes it impossible to expand on that side.
Nippert is the only big stadium I can think of where the seating stops before the end of the end zone. Even open horseshoes like Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State, Illinois, Purdue, and Louisville all go 10-20 yards beyond that. If the Rec Center weren't in the way, UC could easily put another section of sideline seating beyond the North End Zone, along with extra amenities and end zone seating.
Maybe if we delay the decision long enough, the campus rec (already 17 years old now) will become outdated and we can tear it down to fill in the horseshoe.
