If LCFC went to Louisville with the same amount of cash that FCC went to UC with, I'd be surprised if they said no.
Also, Lynn Stadium is grass, they were concerned about the health of the field, not so much an issue on turf.
Just own it, dude.
I was right.
People didn't say you were wrong. You admitted you had know idea about that whole situation, then people chimed in and said you can't compare apples to oranges anyway so it's irrelevant what happened between UL and Louisville FC.
Help me understand what your gripe is exactly? Is it seriously the notches in the horseshoe that got taken out of Nippert? Does that really upset you that much?
Because out of all the changes that FCC has made to Nippert, that is the only one I can think of that somebody might take exception to. All the other changes have enhanced Nippert, haven't they?
1 negative vs a dozen positives. And when FCC is gone it's not like UC can't put seats back where those notches are.
It's already been proven that your theory about how a "big time" university wouldn't accommodate an upstart soccer team is wrong. I'm just trying to understand why you are so passionate about this when most people really don't feel so strongly one way or the other about our beautiful stadium being shared with more people than it otherwise wouldn't be.
OWN IT.
It hurts your little feelings that the AD wants another revenue stream.
Guess what...
THEY NEED ANOTHER REVENUE STREAM...BADLY!!!
You complain that it makes UC FB seem "small time"...I have news for you...
THEY ARE SMALL TIME!!!!
Prove the opposite...show me the Bowl wins and the NC trophies.
THERE AREN'T ANY.
OWN THAT!!!!
Truth. We have plenty to be miserable about Def, we don't need to be miserable about FCC paying us money, upgrading our stadium, and introducing Nippert and campus to a ton of new people.

Ohio State literally did the exact same thing. Whether UC was making major conference money or not... the marketing for the school. the people at the facility during down times, the boom to the local business during those time, the parking revenue, the revenue from the gate, the concessions revenue, and the partnership with a family that has been one of the universities biggest benefactors all made the deal worth it whether UC was in a better league or not.
I am a season ticket holder for LouCity FC, and UofL Soccer. When Jurich was at UofL he wanted no part of helping Louisville City FC.
"The recent change in leadership in the University of Louisville athletic department opened the door for a partnership with Louisville City, one both sides regard as beneficial.
Louisville athletic director Vince Tyra is also a part-owner of Louisville City, and the university's facility discussions with Louisville City began around the time of Tyra's permanent hire in March"

You... do realize that I was talking about when Louisville's soccer team was just starting up Jurich "wanted NO part of it" which is what I was saying.
But by all means keep coming on here and leaving your little snipes instead of OWNING IT.

It sounds to me like UL was initially against it and now after seeing how well it has worked for UC and FCC is now open to it. Isn't that the point? I'm not sure how that ends up being an argument that we somehow screwed up or embarrassed ourselves by partnering with FCC.

Or maybe just check on his computer. Based on his last post, I think his cap lock key got stuck.

No...the only thing that exploded was the point you were trying to make.

Your original point was that no other big name schools would support a deal similar to our deal with FCC.
We already told you about OSU.
And now it appears Louisville will too.
Everytime you're wrong, you just pretend like you were referring to another point in time...you didn't mean OSU 20 years ago! You were referring to OSU in 2018. Oh, and you didn't mean Louisville in 2018. You were referring to Louisville of 20 years ago! How convienant.

Was it X fan appreciation night at FCC? Great opportunity for those folks to see one of the nation's finest campuses, including the "Wrigley Field of college football".

Happy they got to experience what it's like being on a real campus at a real university, in a beautiful, top of the line stadium. Even X alumni should get to see how their betters live every now and then.

I think it's wonderful that those folks got the opportunity to see a big time campus like UC. I'm sure it was a special evening that they won't forget!

I don't care how much you love soccer. If you pay more than double the tuition to get a lesser education I'd be embarrassed to step on our campus.

I apologize for the original post . I didn't know the back story of the photo. I thought random X alumni were holding their flag on our football field and jokingly I thought that would rile people up around here. My bad.

I think it's great, actually. It reinforces all of the reasons an X grad would have to come to UC - FC, big time college football, CCM, interesting lectures, restaurants nearby. At X, you have.........mass?

You're fine. We're a tougher bunch than that. We understand X alumni enjoying themselves on a real college campus.

I ain't mad. I'm legitimately pleased that those misguided folks were immersed in our beautiful campus all evening... it makes it harder for them to deny that UC will always be the alpha dog around here, despite having a down y̶e̶a̶r̶ decade in the Crosstown Shootout.
