As I noted in January I have heard the plans have been scaled back due to inflationary construction costs but how much or how bad I was never told. Finally with respect to Harry Minium's recent report on the stadium expansion at Liberty, I wonder if he did it to try and kick start ODU into releasing some info on our stadium?

*As noted above my "For what it's worth" is not much currently.

To add a little to your account. I spoke to someone about a week ago, and while they did not tell me anything specific, they seemed to imply that there is more bad news on the horizon. I get the feeling that the AD is not a particularly happy place to be right now with regards to football.

Monarchblue, thanks for your info but if you don't mind I have a question about your AD comment? I have been told by actual ODU insiders, some fairly serious $$$ contributors and others whose info I value that our AD/WS has been pretty much totally out of the loop on the new stadium. I was told Harnage was in total control (until he retired) and Selig was only given the stadium details the night before the Board and public were told at the Populous presentation. I am also told he is still not in the loop on the stadium with regards to updates. Have you heard similar stuff or am I seriously misinformed by a lot of people?
