Put emotions aside and do the math.  Think about if it were your own money.  Would you make the investigation.

  I want an OCS as much as the next fan.  However, it doesn't make financial sense.  It's not going to happen.  

There's OCS across the country.  Apparently it makes since to someone ....

Pick any number you like.  The math equation is easy.

Just wondering why any schools have an OCS?

 

According to Joey's numbers we are paying 2M and up in rent each year ($400K per game x 5 or more games).  Based on your math and Joey's report on first year earnings, we'd be less than a million upside down.  What am I missing?  We'd be better off with the OCS assuming your and Joey's numbers are correct?

That's athletic donor revenue, not "local support for USF" .... and that make's us 2nd 😉

I find it hard to believe that if alumni is low “local support” will be higher.

Yep. This has to be job one for Kelly. If you don’t have alumni support then you have nothing.

There's got to be something missing in what's being reported.

Why not build a 25,000 or 30,000 seat stadium with some boxes for the Ironbulls and just move on from there.   IPF has to come first.

Why not build a cheap stadium for $100M. 

We want to live in Bellair and pay Temple Terrace prices.

I agree, but if building an OCS is something the school is interested in, then they need to have a plan and be working on this

Because we have a stadium to play in and we can afford to, "do it right", unlike our friends to the northeast.
