southfresno Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I wish the Raiders were moving to LA, and the Chargers to Vegas LA really is a Raiders town. Chargers might do better with a market all their own like Vegas, and with a new brand/name/identity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain West, if you thought we dominated you now, imagine how dominated you will be when having to play at Aztec Warrior Stadium in front of a sold out house. HAHAHAHAHAHA! Greatest year in Aztec History thus far, and it is only getting better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev McQuervo Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Most here have no idea just how dishonest the Spanos have treated the SD Community. This is EXCELLANT NEWS for the Aztecs. Now we need the City to move on the granting of the land surrounding QComm and get this project mobilized! Great News and the best part may be (and I could sincerely give a rip about anything NFL) LA will never support two teams, OC did (Rams before Georgia "FrontandRearie" relocated) LA is a different beast demographically.

We won't ever lose another home game :-) As the almighty $$ appear to be driving the Chargers' decision, what happens if the City follows that same model? Does SDSU West bring them the $$ that a private developer could? When the dust settles and the music stops, could SDSU be left w/ no chair to sit in?

The property has to be offered to a public entity first. There is already a developer that is partnering with the City and State Legislature (JMI), and they have a plan in place. Furthermore, the already have had in depth discussions with a potential MLS partner. Lot of details will need to be worked out, but this will happen.

Does SDSU West bring them the $$ that a private developer could? When the dust settles and the music stops, could SDSU be left w/ no chair to sit in? There is NOTHING that could be built on the land in MV that would have a greater social, cultural and economic impact than SDSU WEST expansion and its not even close. It will take about 15 years to build-out and will increase student capacity to about 50,000+ which will put SDSU in the top 10 largest public universities in the nation. SDSU already has an annual economic impact to the San Diego region of $2.2 billion; that would double to about $5 billion annually. In addition, about 10,000 new jobs will be created. Furthermore, with the creation of the science campus there will be a significant increase in research grant dollars being funneled into San Diego and SDSU to fund public-private partnerships. The construction of a new SDSU stadium will just be the cherry on top. I do see some private developers such as Doug Manchester who will want to get a piece of the Mission Valley land but they won't be able to get all of it (at most 80 acres). Hopefully, SDSU WEST will be developed on the majority of the property in addition to a 28 acre Public River Park. Go SDSU WEST! Go AZTECS!
