I still don't see the EZF as the panacea. There are schools winning without them, and schools losing with them. I understand some specific limitations with ours, and they need to be addressed, but I just don't see it as the cure-all.

I have one question. Has any university built an EZF that isn't just godawful ugly?

To me, the EZF represents a level of financial commintment by community and alumni that is quite modest compared to the funding of capital improvements to P5 and P5-hopeful football programs across the country. Heck, the citizens of Katy just ponied up $58 million for a HS stadium. Nobody is so idealistic as to not believe that competing at the highest levels requires financial commitment, and $30 million really isn't much.
