PBP stadium update
I realize how upsetting it has to be to watch us (FIU) have our dreams realized. By 2011, we should have gone through multiple phases of our stadium project and the FIU Main street project. That will really help us out not only on the football front but just as a university overall. At some point you guys will get the stadium and all the pessimism will be for nothing. With the increase in the SBC's bow affiliations, even if you don't win the SBC and just get bowl eligible, you could be looking at an extra 600k payday or whatever the bowl games are paying out….
Just think forward to like, I dunno 2013….. If both of our programs continue to grow, especially with on campus stadiums, and get better, we could end up being the next big rivalry in the state of Florida. God that would be awesome! Especially if FIU came out on top (most of the time) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Think of the bowl game money….
we made $14k on the Bowl last year after all expenses were removed, etc..to get anything bid wise above that would take some major wins OOC and to sweep the Belt…aint happening this year, that's for sure…

Also I don't mean you guys are depressed about us getting the stadium, but probably a little ticked considering you have had more success on the field than we have. You don't have to get too saucy with me, I don't say anything with the intentions of sounding condescending.

It's not as if it's really new. I mean, you've been playing there all along. If we weren't jealous in 2002, we're probably not going to be jealous now. Ours is coming – two years, baby.

I don't know all the details about that – something to do with the agreement we made with Dolphin Stadium to move to Lockhart. I don't think we can play you at the new stadium until 2014. I know, weird.
I think we are ok after 2012?
But i think they will look to buy it out…just speculation at this point…but totally deserving…we have ZERO home field advantage when they start playing well, which they are well on the way to that now…

Still thinking that these players are looking for playing time…
