Also if you are Groce and the PR staff, if you didn't have the letter in hand right now and/or was still not sure it's going to be you, then why would you move your presser now to after the announcement and have to face the press if it isn't Illinois.

Well sure. Like I said I was there. So I guess the question is what is the soldier Field figure? Because I was at that game two in there definitely was not 33,000 a bad game. So I guess ultimately we're talking up probably a swing of 10 to 15,000 is that still worth it when we're talking...

This is a good move... People aren't coming no matter what... 2013 in CU vs NU 37,058 (Illini finish 4-8) 2014 in CU vs PSU (weekend before Tgiving) 35,172 (Illini finish 6-7) 2015 SF vs NU 33,514 (Illini finish 5-7) It's wins and perception of the program and its direction that will drive...

Well I was not a boy scout, but I passed my constitution test in Jr. High! Haha :thumb:

They have done this as long as I can remember and I have been going to games 30+ years with season ticket for most of those... it has nothing to do with recent events... its part of the routine, and my guess is that it has to do with respect for the flag and keeping their flags below the height...

It looks like it will be a meeting or film room for pre and post game etc... With the risers on the floor like that just add chairs and the TV and white boards to the wall.

When the day comes that it is needed more seats can be added. 1,500 is nothing right now. People focus on this so much, but first it will be years until we need more seats, and second, I don't think we will ever get back to the days where we need the 75-80,000 of the 1980s on matter what...

From what people who have read the study as part of the request have said, it would actually be overall a net loss of 1,500 seats. In these plans, they are also going to remove the top 14 rows of the East Main Stands under the balcony and put in ADA seating. This would be a loss of 3,000...

I am not sure. I have been in lot 42 at 4th and Kirby for over 10 years. So I am not sure. I believe it tends to be bigger money but it is a pretty big space maybe people who park there can clue us in as to their level etc.

If you are looking at the IFUND benefits chart you do not get tickets for free, that is the limit as to how many you can order in the "priority seating area" which I think is between the 30 yard lines etc... You still have to buy the tickets.

The specific dollar amount for the purchase of your tickets does not count towards your donation or level. You get priority points for consecutive years of season tickets purchased (1000 points per year) and 1 point for every dollar donated... so if you now have tickets and gave $100, you would...

"This full-time, 12-month appointment has a negotiable start date with salary commensurate with experience. This position will report to the Chancellor." We just threw more fuel on the dumpster fire over at football, and we don't want to look for 2 coaches at the same time again so don't worry...
