Quote:Rhoades said on Tuesday that UH has had discussions with officials at Reliant Stadium about using that as a potential home for the 2013 season.

They should play at HRS.

Not until we get an EZF.

I would rather play at Rice than Reliant any day!

Which iteration of the new stadium that has been almost ready to happen are we on now?

The one where the Rob is torn down after this season, the one where the kids voted to fund the $120 Million New Stadium.

Says something about the financial support of the alumni (the +100K of them) doesn't it? With John Moores having cashed in a ton of his money (and in the middle of a divorce) and O'Quinn no longer alive the major bucks of the past have gone. I would have thought the recent football success would have loosened the wallets of a few more Cougar grads.

Well our kids care about there football team and sports, they want more, and the AD and Dr Khator worked generously with them, so all parties we very happy in the end, it was a win-win.

So did Rhoades fire whoever it was who did that feasibility study that estimated the value of all the naming rights sponsorships at $85 million?

Was it one of our marketing folks, perchance?
