[QUOTE="Zissou, post: 2168288, member: 7920"] Bobol, that is kind of a dick thing to say. I think I have clarified the stadium plan very accurately. [LIST] [*]Talen Energy Stadium was built with a future incremental expansion plan in place. [*]There is no active decision to make that expansion, but it is a desire of the MLS Union to expand at some point. [*]Playing at Talen (PPL) was Nova's plan to the Big East in 2011. It meets FBS requirements as configured. Adding Nova as a tenant supports their desired expansion plan, which has no set timetable. Nova and Talen could agree on a timetable for expansion if an FBS path forward developed. [*]Nova probably doesn't need more than 30K and working for now with 18,500 would be fine in that we can play a few games in a larger venue if desired. If we schedule Tulsa, Talen (PPL) would be fine. If we scheduled Penn State we'd play in the Linc. [*]You probably have had family members go to UConn as well, but that doesn't help you to know what conference UConn will end up in. It is true that Nova does not know its football direction. That is painfully clear. It is a fact that Talen was the stadium plan in 2011 when Pitt, WVU, and Rutgers put up the road block on the Nova invitation. It is also true that had Nova just accepted 6 months earlier, or when UConn stepped up, it would not have been an issue. The Talen plan is on the shelf, as is Talen's future expansion timing. Nova's path forward in football is uncertain. I don't know it, you don't know it, and your cousin's boyfriend at Nova doesn't know it. Nova's AD doesn't even know it. This thread is looking forward to what is possible, primarily from a view of adding UConn to the Big East. If UConn moves to the Big East, it needs a solution for the football program in FBS. Nova also needs a football direction. [/LIST] Bobol, your behavior is boorish. [/QUOTE]
