OCS...not even a question.

 

Totally agree

 

But it's apples and pomegranates - $15m for the IPF and $150-300m for the OCS

 

Order of magnitude. We'll get the IPF while we're waiting for the OCS

 

 

My hubby asked Harlan about the IPF at Mutt's event, and was told that it would cost betweent $35-45 million! My hubby also thought that it was only about $15million to build. Harlan has discussed it with Taggart, but it's up in the air at the moment. With limited $$$ to spend they want to consider all options across all sports, before making any new commitments.

Just announce the fund raising effort. If it takes 10 years, so be it but make the announcement now. I just don't see what the harm is. I think the majority of people believe an OCS is in the best interest of the program AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE. Make the announcement now and start the effort.

Obviously I think most would want the OCS first. But at least the indoor facility will benefit multiple sports.

Hubby's right. The new one at FSU was $15 million. Hopefully it being up in the air isn't based on that outrageous figure Harlan is going off of .... and what other options are needed across all sports at this time? Tennis is the only one I can think of and honestly, they should get theirs before an IPF.

Last time an IPF was seriously discussed, they wanted a multi-sport IPF... for football, base/softball and soccer.

However even when this was discussed in 2012, they had $14M as a ballpark figure.
