Message: [QUOTE="ct06111, post: 1595355, member: 6413"] Just like we would have to expand the rent to get into p5, im sure it will probably be a contractual requirement to upgrade the XL. Oil tycoons and rich businessmen from TX and OK will probably not accept sitting in skyboxes 500 feet away from the action. NCAA/UConn/and whatever conference will want to maximize revenue. It's not happening @ current XL. I'm sorry, sports are a business and I'm sure big wigs @ UConn care more about increasing revenue streams from sporting events than catering to students and fans of on-campus facilities. The XL needs drastic renovations to Bring in a major tenant like a power 5 conference They just signed a 20 year LOI to stay in Hartford if the upgrades happen. Their spending 10 million to fix gampel roof. Ticket surcharge made no mention of hockey barn. Only baseball, softball, soccer facilities. I'm sure it will be also used for on-campus barn, but it was not mentioned in articles I read. [/QUOTE]
