Liberty bowl was a dump. If thats what $200 million can do I'm excited to see ours assuming the number is still just over $300 million

Pure coincidence that both schools are hoping for a 2025 completion date?

I thought we were 2026-27 season.

I thought at first it was "hoping for 2025 but it might be 2026."  In any event, kind of curious the two schools are headed for the same time frame, although that is largely because the two are at the same point in the project.  However, of all the AAC schools, these two seem to be the ones looking at this right on the heels of the previous B12 expansion, and there were some comments about future expansion and facilities being needed, etc.

I guess my real point is it starts to feel like maybe some discussions behind the scenes have taken place.  Or, chicken or egg, the fact that Memphis and USF are pushing hard in the stadium arena is what makes them top of the rumor mill.
