Troy Dannen says Nebraska’s $450 million Memorial Stadium renovation is on hold due to UNL’s budget deficit. “The time is not now.”

Kinda, but not really

 

[Tonkasker]

Its because we're spending $450 million on players

This kind of thing will be happening everywhere. This will be the end of the facility arms race, so us being the last to build will be a big advantage.

A couple weeks ago Cockeye St's AD came out and said they will have deficit every year that's even bigger than their revenue share. Over the next 6 years they expect to be something like $150 million in the red

This whole thing is setting up for a split into separate divisions based on revenue in the next 5 years

Beyond any sports related issues, we are approaching 18 years on from the Great Recession which is around the time that fertility rates, by a lot of measures, dropped. Budgeting anything is a hell of a lot easier when the assumption that your pool of consumers is going to continue to grow and you can take in more revenue to pay your expenses.

So on the actual university side shit is gonna get real iffy and as you noted it's a pattern basically everywhere

Why is it going back to legends & leaders?

 

[BradWesley]

Watch. We have to cut back on our mascot, and bring back just a guy with a mask, in a green jumpsuit.

So, it’s good that we are one of the few programs without debt right?

Fuck Dave Ramsey. Bring on the debt

Cut lil red to save the budget!

@BradWesley has the right of it: He must die at midfield from a trident thrown by Fearless Frankie Solich. It's the only way to lift the curse and clear the debt.

Apparently we consult the same spiritual advisor…

I know a couple faculty and admin staff at UNL. They were all told earlier this week that merit raises are on hold and there is a hiring freeze in various departments.

So I can understand why this was put on hold.

That would be a tough sell

Wouldn’t it be private dollars?

 

[Adolph Coors]

its the most unnecessary thing in the world

Anyone else graduate during the Golden Era (60-3)? I clearly remember leaving games at halftime so we could go drink or whatever, as the game was a blowout. 50 year old me wants to get in a Time Machine, go back, and kick my own ass.
