College Football News, Rumor & Humor



OSU finally finishing Reser Stadium by rebuilding the west side of that stadium and will be ready this fall plus fully done in 2023.

Surprised they didn't try and drop it more straight down. With the rotation and long roof deck, the danger zone from heavy debris had to be enormous.

I think it would be faster to clean up the debris that is more spread out than if it was all clustered together. They got to have the new stands ready for next football season and their home opener is less than eight months away against Boise State.

And probably dropping it into a large parking lot so no big issue with damaging something with debris.
 
It’s weird. The older I get, and more money I have, the less I want to give it to an athletic program. If I were a billionaire I’d be more apt to endowing some scholarships or finding a way to help underserved communities get access to programs, but just giving money to a school for sports seems wasteful. (Enter curing cancer joke here)

I agree with what you are saying. Part of it is getting older and a different perspective on things.

To me a bigger issue is seeing the way college football and athletics in general is changing. There have always been the programs that were about winning to the exclusion of everything else but most of the programs had at least a veneer of educating players and being a part of a school, not just a money focused business.

With NIL, the mega media contracts, open transfer rules, out of control coaches contracts, and more the connection between athletics and actual school is slipping away
