Hopefully. Their 10 win season should also help in recruiting.

$270 million is ridiculous for an amateur sports team.

You can bet 100 to 150M of that 270 is the cost of union labor.
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

You're thinking government work. It is an impressive facility given that Northwestern is to the big 10 what Rice was to the SWC.

When my folks lived in Chicago in the 70s they were fortunate to get tickets to some Northwestern games when they had the longest losing streak in the nation. Every game was a sell out. They at least draw fans and they have done pretty well in the not too distant past.

Maybe if the Cubs were a Dallas team we could have had that fan base. Chicago loves their losers.

honestly, even on non-union jobs, construction (industrial) in the gulf coast averages 34% time on tools...

I think University of Chicago was to the Big Ten, what Rice was to the SWC.

I thought they were bright kids - still need to warn them not to dive into the 3 foot sauna.
