Here is a Paul Doyle piece that sums up the situation for UConn post-Louisville. Nothing new for BYers who are following the story (and theories). At the end is a quote from Warde on expanding the Rent:
... or am I reaching too far?
Nothing set in stone, but it supports the point that both the football product and the fan support need to step it up. We can have a chicken vs. egg argument but hopefully both to trend up... what's not explicit from that short quote is what kind of plan WM has and how he'll execute it, how long it could take. At the very least we can say it's on the radar rather than being a vague idea for after the bball facility is done (which in Hathaway's time was also a vague idea as far as fundraising and timeline)."[Expansion is] going to depend on the consistency of our fan base and what the needs are," said UConn athletic director Warde Manuel. "I would love to, because of interest and support, to be able to add 10,000 more seats. As our program improves and gets better and we strengthen the schedule like we're doing ... then we'll look to add additional seats."
