  1. i thought all that with the bronze bulls and such was the enhanced version of the plaza. i think they are building it at a watered down version. still nice, just not as nice. either way, hopefully they will get the enhanced version and it will still be WAY better than the old MC. what do u mean watered down version??? the enhanched version has already been approved and is going to get built...... They changed a few things in the plaza... but it's pretty much the same. The entire amount requested was approved by the Student Senate a while back. One thing they added is a bandstand near the Beef's... The thing is almost done... less then one month!
  2. Late July or August. I haven't been hanging around the MC lately, so I don't know the latest update. I think it will open up with the start of the Fall term. They already have many parts done, painted, and ready to move stuff in. The entire project won't be finished until they finish the "enhanced plaza," which will be where the old MC sits currently. That will continue into Sp09 and maybe summer09. In the end, it will have a bandstand (amphitheater) with seating near the Beefs, water fountains with bronze bulls, and a MOTL lawn with MOTL projected on the bookstore wall. You should hit the jazz program up and get them ready for some jazz nights at the MC bandstand! Beer and wine from the beefs... haha.
  3. Like I said on the other thread... the will have limits, but they will serve the beer and wine. The Aramark guy is rather excited about it too, he said he always dreamed of running a sports bar...
  4. They are just getting them today... I'm sure people will post something by tonight
  5. I know... it was out in left field... it took a lot of work for you to discuss an OCS in a band uniform thread... good work.
  6. I think someone was making a joke about "renting" something rather then "building" something... just a guess. Was everyone else slow... or were you really retarded?
  7. I really think Jim works for USF Planning and Zoning... anyway... New MC Webcam: http://ctr.usf.edu/renovation/webcam.html http://ctr.usf.edu/renovation/webcam2.html Poured concrete already and the we have parts (staircases, etc) going up now!
  8. I don't know the exact fundings source... but I doubt it was Athletics money... BUT, you never know...
  9. Well, none the less, we know people are looking at it now...
  10. BTW: I'm about 90% sure that "institutional investors" means a big time investment company (like the company that owns UMall already). But, none the less, it's one way I could spin it to be USF.
  11. Jan 31 2007 http://www.glimcher.com/pages/press/index.jsp Now, this could just be me wanting USF to buy this place... but does INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS mean a big time investor or an INSTITUTION like USF, or our backers (foundation). Dr. Genshaft DID say that we will be raising up to a billion in our fundraising campaign, and stated their will be good surprises. Could this purchase be part of it?
  12. Jan 31, 2007 Statement by Mall Owner: http://www.glimcher.com/pages/press/index.jsp
  13. That I know of, no one has bought the mall yet. Remember, this mall has been on the market for months or years.
  14. Not trying to dis Hogan... but he was a former student... not alumni... hmmmm....
  15. An amazing person. While I'm not in the band anymore, thank you!
  16. The dotted line with the red circle is the "OCS" http://usfweb2.usf.edu/FacilitiesPlan/Campus%20Planning/plan_draft.html

  18. Would an OCS be good for... To have an NC or any success? Of course not! Recruits? Yes. Building of campus spirit? Yes. Traditions? Yes and many. Alumni pride and return? Yes. It's just that things that bites all of us and drives us insane. PRIDE. Recurits, players, students, admin, alumni, communicty can be PROUD of our program. An OCS is a SYMBOL of pride. It's a symbol of everyone coming together. I agree, no later than 2020... maybe as close as 2010 and they could start planning VERY soon. The Sun Dome is an on campus arena (OCA); is the the Sun Dome a center of pride and tradition? Is it a SYMBOL of pride? Is it a drawing card for the return of Alumni. As far as recruiting goes, both CJL and recruits have stated that RJS is a big plus. Football and Basketball are different... sorry. Plus, I am talking about a really nice OCS, not something that looks like the Sun Done does now. It will be a great reason for alumni to come back to campus. It will be good for building campus life and a true campus atmosphere. It's one of the few events that 45,000 to 60,000 people would be on campus at the same time. It would be a symbol of pride like I said. I will be the rallying point of BullsNation, and it will be on OUR turf.
  19. not a bad summary. good points too, I hope we have people can really fill those shoes of the srs
  20. Needless to say, any donation would be great and very thoughful. The fundraising is underway and making headway from what I have heard so far, but the band is not out of the red yet. Thanks to everyone who supports to band, with gift in kinds or in general.
