Still hoping this is just a rubber stamp and Lamb has everything he needs to sail this through. Also, what is the value in waiting (until later) to get BOG approval? It seems that the positive spin would be nice right now. Edited July 28, 2023 by Cat941 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USF administration understands that pulling back now would be a major blow and disappointment to the fan base. No going back at this point. I think it would be the last straw for me if they punked out on the stadium plans. I'll always root for USF athletics, but its not like I can't walk up to any game and buy tickets at the gate. I am holding on to my season tickets assuming I have a guaranteed seat in this new stadium of ours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If approved, project is anticipated to open July 2026” see they meet August 18th at JP Morgan in Manhattan, then end of August at UF way that’s worded makes it sound like it may be the last approval we need… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The end of August meeting is the one we're eyeballing and assuming they approve the debt issuance, that would (I believe) be the last step before the project is fully green lit.

Or Raymond James for that matter... since the Bucs had to have the first game -- so USF played Slippery Rock and Valparaiso at the Old Sombrero to open 1998. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
