Trustees pushed the Gillin extension and have been/are doing the same with Coach Kerns . And yes the IPF is an issue of major concern at that level. Stay tuned.

Show any proof of this. Any at all. Show you know anything. Show. Anything. Any proof at all.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2024 6:31 pmThank you for proving my point.

Yes Doug worked at Mizzou. And yes Drinkwitz came from App. But that relationship isn’t what the author thinks it is.
The East side funding is secured. I explained it to you, as it was explained to me, along with what was holding up the process. It will be paid for without bonds. You don’t have to believe me. I don’t care.
I’m not looking for an apology. You weren’t stating a concern. You made an accusation that Doug was looking for a job and that he wasn’t focused on locking down Kerns. It is quite clear that you don’t know jack. Again. Bless your heart. I’m done with you. GTFOH troll.
Saint, all of that is true. They are working on getting commitments for the project. I never said it wasn't going to happen. Now 18 or so months ago I said the funding wasn't secure. They are working on it. Now they have to work on the IPF. We'll see what happens first.Saint3333 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2024 8:26 pmThey are soliciting for seat packages and minimum donation requirements for those seats (suites, etc) to help pay for the east side expansion. Unsure what percent are committed at this point.
Using terms like “fully funded” and “secured” are misleading to some (including myself), but people are allowed to see the funding process differently.
It will happen and unfortunately it will be more considerably more expensive today than three years ago. Anyone that has dealt with major capital projects lately will tell you the cost of concrete, steel, etc are much higher.
Playing your card here 95 -- show me proof anywhere and I'll believe you. You can't play that card and then play victim simply because you refuse to believe it.appgrad95&97 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2024 8:32 pmSaint, all of that is true.

I truly appreciate your dealing in facts. And being clear when you are giving an opinion.
Actually there are tons of people who will know both of these thingsappgrad95&97 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2024 5:32 pmNo one will ever know who is on the actual Missouri list or if Doug wants to be.

In my opinion, no athletics department should be allowed to just take on debt without showing a real plan for servicing that debt. It was irresponsible to say that funding was secured on the East side when there was no indication in the public record that was true. 105 is over budget, the IPF doesn't seem to have the private support (yet) and the East side was a painting not a plan.
Yes Doug worked at Mizzou. And yes Drinkwitz came from App. But that relationship isn’t what the author thinks it is.
94, this is the core of our disagreement: Given Doug's time at App and his connection to Missouri it seems reasonable to think Missouri might have interest in him. It also makes sense that coming off a good football and a GREAT basketball season that he would have interest in the open job at Missouri. To me that statement is more believable than these:AppSt94 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2024 6:31 pmThank you for proving my point. You started off by saying he was looking around.
