Remind me. Why exactly are expanding Jack Trice?
So that we have more room to spread out at games. I'm tired of not being able to put my feet up at games anymore, more seats and less fans means I get to be more comfortable at games. I might even lay down and take a little nap next year.

I thought Rhoads should be evaluated at the end of the season. If I am the AD, I have seen everything I need to see. Not only consistently losing at home, but now getting blown out. Time after time the team comes out unprepared and not ready to play. No real effort until early in the 2nd quarter at which time the game had already been decided. This is after a two week layoff. No sense of urgency, no composure, no discipline. Lousy tackling. Absolutely dominated in the trenches. Their O line is good, but nothing special. Our O line? See rushing statistics for the year. The choice? Pay this guy $2 million to run the program into the ground for another year or pay him $5 million to just go away. Spending that money hurts, but is a manageable cost in today's FBS revenue model. Next step is to hire a HEAD Coach with a winning record and a history of developing players. Probably not going to come from FBS, but I don't care if we find somebody at Division III who fits that bill. Hell, Chip Kelley was coaching DII just a few years ago. No more long term contracts for football. We can produce a .400 winning percentage cycling coaches just like we can with a long term deal.
