I believe he said if there was enough private funding committed he'd definitely look at bringing it back sooner if the money was committed to it but right now we can't afford it under our current budget.
Again, this was several months ago that I heard this so don't hold me to the accuracy of it but I distinctly remember the $1.5 mil number he put out there.
The funny thing is there is and always has been the private funding to bring it back,
JP and VdV just won't accept it untill the other things are done... There was private funding available hours after VdV made the decision to cut the team...
