Maybe a milestone or something behind the scenes. Don't be disappointed if nothing flashy is announced (if at all). Just know the wheels they are a-turnin'. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there would have to be an upgrade on the infrastructure before you could even dream of putting a stadium there Concerts at the Sun Dome (7,000 - 10,000) are different than in a stadium that could fit 45,000 or more.

It's the fact that the vast majority seemed to be directed towards the campus and not athletics True... you don't build a $500 million endowment without a solid donor base... but the athletic donations are meager compared to the folks in Oviedo.

I said earlier if I did not believe what I was told I would not have put myself out there like that. But, what can you do? . I fall on my sword and move on. However, I still believe we are going to hear something…and soon.

I’d be surprised if there was one. This is from someone inside USF athletics. However he did not deny that they are working towards announcing something relating to the OCS and that there’s progress being made. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
