Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4669621, member: 44"] At first blush, some people will look at this and say "well, then the state loses all the money from the UConn rental fees" but since the state foots the bill for that anyway, this idea is actually a net positive for the state because they eliminate the salaries and overhead of the incompetent CDRA. The more interesting question is why would UConn want control of a dilapidated, money losing, half century old arena over 30 miles from campus? I do think if the state wants Connecticut to play there, it should make the facility available rent free and split the profits from the game. All that would do is eliminate the states subsidy of the XL Center from running through the University of Connecticut athletic department. [/QUOTE]
