Did it not come from a group of private donors?

Va Tech from the ACC already losing to Xavier, 1-0, in the 25th minute

BlueK

11/15/19 3:34pm

When does Utah lose?

Archaea

11/15/19 3:37pm

If I guessed, I would say Duke scores early and then packs it in

BlueK

11/15/19 3:41pm

Yes Duke is boring.

Archaea

11/15/19 3:43pm

We should build more bleachers

Archaea

11/15/19 3:36pm

It would be cool if they built a new facility

BlueK

11/15/19 3:37pm

Provo High should have been that

Archaea

11/15/19 3:40pm

Why can't it still be? Expand the Provo stadium and use it for soccer & rugby (need to trade turf for grass).

Soupie

I would love that but Administration wants an intramural

Archaea

11/15/19 3:48pm

How about the fans pay for it.

charles

11/15/19 3:40pm

Fans are not allowed to do that. Administration wants absolute

Archaea

11/15/19 3:41pm

Rather they don't want to be beholden to some big donor whose name is on a building that may later embarrass them.

Soupie

11/15/19 3:45pm

well, we better not demand to name it "Cougarboard Stadium" then

JackStack

“Beholden”? Universities change names of persons

Archaea

11/15/19 3:47pm

yeah, good thing Larry Miller is dead, right?

BlueK

Billy Casper has his memorabilia removed

Archaea

11/15/19 3:50pm

really? That's bizarre

BlueK

11/15/19 3:57pm

BYU wants only perfect people to represent it.

Archaea

11/15/19 4:04pm

It's a new policy in last few years.

Soupie

11/15/19 3:50pm

We are Borg and assimilate all. Nobody deserves

Archaea

11/15/19 3:52pm

Not my policy. Just the messenger.

Soupie

11/15/19 3:54pm

Resistance is futile.

Apparently this is a new rule

They removed Billy Casper’s memorabilia because he divorced.

Archaea

11/19/19 5:17am

Are you thinking of someone else? Billy Casper was never divorced.

Icecat

11/19/19 5:36am

Oops. There goes that narrative. And I wonder just how much Billy Casper

NewMexiCoug

11/19/19 6:18am

The rumor that this rule exists has been around for > 30 years, and yet

NewMexiCoug

11/19/19 6:20am

donations are good. But BYU should do their part in announcing they want

BlueK

11/15/19 3:42pm

Involving fans is one area they fail

Archaea

11/15/19 3:43pm

The Romantic Languages department will be sad that sports gets more funding than

JackStack

well, they see Christmas Around the World kick the basketball team out of the

BlueK

If the average attendance is less than maximum capacity, is it worth it to

cwilke1

11/15/19 4:11pm

It draws well and can draw more. It is often at capacity.

Archaea

11/15/19 4:12pm

If you can get them to accept your money to build a bigger one, I would not

cwilke1

11/15/19 4:20pm

They’ll accept your money. They just won’t say it’s earmarked for particular project.

Soupie

BYU leads the NCAA in attendance almost every year

BlueK

11/15/19 9:32pm

And they can continue to lead it every year in their current stadium.
