The initial best case scenario Byrne stated when this first got announced was after the 2021-2022 season. This seems like melting just to melt.

Yeah it was always going to take a backseat to BDS, and the BDS renovation has undergone a lot of changes, which probably pushed the timetable on it back and as a result pushed the timetable back on everything else.

BDS doesn’t need a fricking renovation as bad as we need a new arena. frick putting another crust of diamonds on BDS and put the money where it’s needed. This has gotten out of control. The FOGs need to be told to STFU.

The reality of the situation is football has to be put first to be able to raise the necessary funds. It is what it is.

Well you can have it one of two ways. Either they make the pitch of "give us $10 and $6.50 of it will go to football facilities improvements" and get the $10, or they make the pitch of "give us $10 and $6.50 of it will go to non-football facilities improvements with the leftovers going to football" and get $0. It sucks that we have so many fans and boosters who have that mindset, but we do and bitching to Byrne about it won't change that. I'm sure he's well aware of the challenges he's faced with in terms of fundraising and is just as frustrated about it as anyone.

Someone asked Byrne why not just build a new arena and this was his response:

quote:

Truly appreciate the passion our fans have when it comes to discussing Coleman. As much as I’d like to say we have an extra $100-200 million at our fingertips to address this, we don’t. We have to create a solid financial plan to allow this to happen. We are working on it.

Natural disaster. I don't want anyone hurt and I don't want anything else damaged.

We don’t have some sort of insurance on Coleman where we can “accidentally” have it catch on fire and get a new one?

FOG's?. Saban spends a lot of money. Alot. He's in charge. If he wanted a new basketball arena, they'd break ground in the morning if he insisted.

Your problem is with him. There is no higher authority on these matters.

Our only hope is to beat the Barn and hope that there is a barn fan out there as crazy as Updyke that will burn it to the ground.


Hell,I will buy him $100 worth of Gas.

They may have hinted to him that they’re gonna be in trouble soon, and then he didn’t want any part of that
