Although with the lines, it would look very ABA/patriotic.

It would be like if Jackie Moon were your AD.

Whats grandma gonna do? Demand that they put the track back down? C'MON! :roll:

Renting a gradall for a couple days and a couple rows of bleachers can't cost that much. And the seats would pay for themselves in a couple years. You need to push for it or the school will be letting itself down.

Seriously. Where's the fallacy in his argument? If the field's getting torn up, just tear the track out, lower the field, put in new seats and then put in the red turf. It really would pay for itself pretty quick.

Are you 14 or just an idiot??

Andy's right, you spent multiple pages lecturing us all about how UR should've taken out the track, gotta take out the track, I'm the man I know, just do it, no other concerns, if you were men you'd do it, you're weak etc., etc., etc.

Then, when your weak ass gets called out on EWU: IT'S ALL UP TO EASTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY. To not understand the hypocrisy in your posts (and the sarcasm in mine), makes me wonder if your parents should let you use the computer.

EDIT: Seriously man, let me know if you have some sort of mental issue, because I really don't want to pick on somebody like that.

You should be. It's not often a Towson man can say that.

Looks nice and it is true to the campus architecture. But getting 3000 cars in and out of that campus on game day is gonna take David Copperfield.

I do worry about that, but the hope is that they will arrive for tailgating over a longer period of time, and park all over campus. The Robins Center does seat 9,000 and they have had many crowds that large over the years as well, so it is not a completely new occurrence.

In EWU's honor, here is UR's new Spider Blue Field..

Resident tuition (only) is what, $5k, maybe $6k a year? UR is $40k. Want a room and 3 squares add another $12k. And the Robbins families, Ukrops families and all the other UR benefactors are likely in better financial shape than the state of Washington. In this environment state schools have more pressures to cut than privates do.
