Irons, the AU Administration is short sighted if they delay a football only facility because of the current HC. Facility upgrades are needed to keep up with the rest of the programs in this conference.

To “dangle” a football facility in front of a new Candidate is ridiculous when Gus pledged $2MM of his on skin into it.

Hell, AU promised Butch big baseball renovations when they hired him and STILL haven’t done shite. And they recently put the baseball improvements in hold after he just took them to the CWS.....

It is going to get built, but again the Gus issues last year delayed it some.
The BB renovations will happen also, but AUs biggest problem is everything is BOTs approved and that process causes delays. Bama's BOT just rubber stamps anything brought to them by the AD if it involves Football. AU has to debate about it over 2-3 quarterly meetings.
